Anaxágoras
Anaxágoras was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who is best known for introducing the concept of Nous (Mind or Intellect) as a cosmic force that organizes the universe. He significantly contributed to the development of philosophy and science by proposing that everything is made of infinitely divisible particles, which he referred to as 'seeds.' Anaxágoras's ideas had a profound impact on later thinkers, including Socrates and Plato, and he is often credited with emphasizing the role of reason and intelligence in understanding the natural world.
