Christ's book contains interesting observations which begin to point in a different direction, especially his sensitivity to the differences in form between Socratic dialogues and treatises like Poroi and their implications for Xenophon's 'message' ... this just goes to show that careful reading of Christ's book is handsomely repaid.'
