Paul Cartledgeis A.G. Leventis Senior Research Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge and Inaugural A.G. Leventis Professor of Greek Culture emeritus in the Faculty of Classics at the University of Cambridge. His most recent books areDemocracy: A LifeandThebes: The Forgotten City of Ancient Greece.Paul Christesen is William R. Kenan Professor of Ancient Greek History, Department of Classics, Dartmouth College. He is the author of three books, including most recently A New Reading of the Damonon Stele(2019).

An essential framework forms a useful structure for facilitating comparison between sites and commensurate analysis and is accompanied by a critical, focused bibliography. The design of the overall work is aimed at experts but remains accessible to a wider audience. This volume reveals a surprising variety between the social customs and institutions of the various poleis. The detailed site descriptions are a particular strength, fixing each polis geographically and materially in readers' minds.... Highly recommended.
