"I cannot, in a brief review, do justice to this massive and magisterial piece of scholarship. […] Each section reads very much like an essay on its subject, reflecting the breadth and depth of the author’s understanding of this material and the secondary literature on it.”Robert Mayhew, Seton Hall University, in BMCR 2011.12.52 (2011)
