Assent and Argument by Brad Inwood

These ten essays on Cicero's Academic Books (the Academia and Lucullus) deal with various aspects of Academic scepticism, ancient epistemology, and the history of the Academy. The tradition from Socrates through to Galen is covered, with special emphasis on Carneades, Antiochus and, of course, Cicero himself.

Jaap Mansfeld, Ph.D. (1964), Is Professor of Ancient and Medieval Philosophy at the University of Utrecht. He has published widely on ancient philosophy, its historiography and its reception, including Prolegomena (Brill, 1994) and most recently Aëtiana with David T. Runia (Brill, 1997).
