Reviews for Maieusis
This volume is a well-deserved festschrift for Myles Burnyeat. Burnyeat is one of the leading ancient philosophers of his generation: his writings have reinvigorated many old debates and opened up new ones...Superd and thought-provoking articles... They will stimulate, I am sure, much productive future research and form a fitting tribute to Myles Burnyeat.
