Marc Van De Mieroop
"Van de Mieroop has written a stimulating book that historians will
find as interesting as Assyriologists, ancient historians, and
archaeologists do. His reflections are always worth pondering, and
he continues to grow in depth as one of our most important scholars
of ancient Mesopotamia."
-D.T. Potts, University of Sydney, American Historical Review,
October 2002
"Van de Mieroop has afforded the undergraduate student an excellent
opportunity for understanding the difficulties of reconstructing
Mesopotamian history from the cuneiform sources.
Thus, this work is not only for the introductory student but also
for the classical scholar (or general historian), who will no
longer think that history began with the Greeks. It will no doubt
be a most indispensable volume for any course on ancient Near
Eastern history or civilization, or, for that matter, on
historiography."
-Religious Studies Review
