The School of History: Athens in the Age of Socrates
"A work of considerable research . . . closely argued and detailed."  --Terry Edwards, Joint Association of Classical Teachers Review"It is a dull reader indeed who will not be provoked by Munn's arguments."  --David J. Schenker, The Classical Review"Munn's book is a substantial contribution to the literature on the political world of the late fifth century. His sense of the continuities and dissonances between the traditional elite political culture and the exigencies created by democratic imperialism is a particularly valuable theme, and the collation of primary and secondary sources for a whole series of complex events spanning more than two decades will make the book useful to many."--Robert Vaca,The Review of Politics--Review"Thorough, exhaustive and wide-ranging. . . "  --Times Literary  SupplementMunn's narrative ... is unsurpassed in its richness of detail and superlatively thorough documentation.  His treatment of Socrates is ... politically realistic.  --Peter Green, Times Literary Supplement, December 22, 2000
