Reviews

'It is a demanding challenge to digest and synthesize the multiple developments, controversies, and discoveries, especially when all is still far from said and done. Daniela Dueck merits our gratitude, therefore, for rising to the task and … for crafting such a valuable, wide-ranging overview.' Richard J. A. Talbert, Bryn Mawr Classical Review

'This concise and clearly organized volume is a suitable introduction to this fascinating topic for the educated layperson, or a handy text around which to build an undergraduate course. Dueck's argument is well grounded in primary evidence and she provides generous excerpts of pertinent and interesting texts throughout.' Georgia L. Irby, Ancient History Bulletin Online Reviews
