Reviews

This scholarly volume offers a delectable feast of primary- and secondary-source discovery drawn from decades of research. --Linn W. Hobbs Through the diversity of views expressed and the rigor of the scientific approach of its authors, this book makes a notable contribution to the understanding of aspects of the particular constructing genius of the Romans. --Jean-Robert Gisler This monograph is a major contribution to our understanding of the techniques and usages of Roman maritime concrete in the Mediterranean due to its wide scope, the state-of-the-art methods applied, the regionally and chronologically wide range of sites, as well as its attendant detailed analyses of these issues.--Stefan Feuser, Universitat Rostock (12/1/2015 12:00:00 AM)
