This volume is a manifesto for the implementation of the methods of social science in the field of ancient Greek History. After a methodological introduction by Josiah Ober that sets the debate, the nineteen chapters, followed by a conclusion by John Davies, beautifully illustrate the fruitfulness of the approach.--Alain Bresson, The University of Chicago
