Reviews

The standards of production are as high as those of composition
*Bryn Mawr Classical Review*

Is immensely valuable to all students of ancient thought since Bett addresses most of the key issues of early Pyrrhonism in an orderly, learned and intelligently argued manner. It is informative and thought-provoking from start to finish, and his answers to the many problems of Pyrrhonism are always illuminating
*Bryn Mawr Classical Review*

Offers a comprehensive interpretation of the fortunes of early Pyrrhonism
*Bryn Mawr Classical Review*

The book usefully puts the material together and considers, with modesty and intelligence, certain objections which have been or might be raised against the metaphysical interpretation. Many of the accompanying contentions are true: the book makes a substantial contribution to the understanding of a knotty group of texts. In addition, it is pleasingly written and prettily presented.
*Mind, vol. 110, no. 440*
