This English translation of Heraclitus'' fragments combines all those generally accepted in modern scholarship. Dennis Sweet maintains the ''flavor'' of the Greek syntax as much as meaningful English will allow, and uses more archaic meanings over the later meanings.

In the footnotes he includes, along with various textual and explanatory information, variant meanings of the most important terms so as to convey some of the semantical richness and layers of meaning which Heraclitus often utilizes.
