I just found out today about the new book released by Christos Yapijakis and several other contributors from the Garden of Athens in Greece. Here is a link to the Amazon page with table of contents and preview. I haven't had a chance to purchase much less start to read, but I hope if people here are interested and go through it they will comment in the thread below. Also below is the Table of Contents:

Thank you Cassius.
I am reading it and it is very insightful.
It is not the style of Emliy A Austin´s book, and the quality is similarly high
At least in my opinion
with good valid references.
The book emphasizes the influence and pro-scientific nature of Epicurean philosophy and how it is at the core of a naturalistic worldview
and how these discoveries advance medicine, chemistry, technology and human prosperity
