Table of ContentsReviews...Bett supplements his excellent translation with helpful secondary materials, including a valuable and rich provision of footnotes (over 300) discussing philological and textual as well as philosophical and substantive issues. The result is not only a translation of great fidelity and precision - sure to become the standard - but an edition of Sextus' work that will benefit both students and scholars interested in ancient physics and skepticism... Bett has combined a readable yet faithful translation with a conscientious, erudite and intelligent commentary. His edition approaches asymptotically the experience of a philosophically informed encounter with the source text... -- Clifford Roberts, Cornell University, Bryn Mawr Classical Review Author InformationRichard Bett is Professor of Philosophy and Classics at The Johns Hopkins University.
