P. J. Rhodes was Professor of Ancient History and is now Honorary Professor and Emeritus Professor at Durham University. He has edited and translated four volumes of Thucydides’ Histories in the Aris & Phillips Classical Texts series, as well as two volumes on the Athenian Constitution. His many other publications include Periclean Athens (Bloomsbury, 2018) and The Greek City States: A Source Boo’ (Cambridge University Press, 2007). He was President of the Classical Association from 2014–15 and was awarded the Chancellor’s Medal, University of Durham, in 2015.

'The mere fact that it combines text, translation, and commentary, all in one place, already places this book well above the principal alternatives [...] The price is also very reasonable given the size of the book; any decent library that professes to cater to students of classics or ancient history ought to acquire a copy. It seems almost certain that Rhodes will serve yet another generation of English­-speaking students as their initial guide to the study of the Athenaiōn Politeia – and serve them very well indeed.'
