Just this brief glimpse into Walter's book shows how rich the subject matter, how important the topic. Despite its scholarly tone, the author's deft selection of material and convincing arguments about their relevance to our understanding of ancient Greece and Rome make this book an important one. Highly recommended. * Cliff Cunningham, University of Southern Queensland, Sun News Tuscon *
