The author of this book places this development in the context of Mediterranean civilization, providing an account of the transformation that launched Western culture.Oswyn Murray is a Fellow and Tutor in Ancient History at Balliol College, Oxford and the editor of the ‘Fontana History of the Ancient World’ series.
