"An enormously impressive work. [Beard's] attitude, invariably appreciative yet critical, is ideal for the task in hand; his erudition is formidable. His style, serene, limpid and unpretentious, is a model for philosophical exposition." - Hugo Meynell, Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies, the University of Calgary, Canada"
