"This study of an insufficiently appreciated classic brings out--as no earlier treatment known to me--the complex unity of the work. Nadon's many shrewd political observations and remarks, to which he is guided by the author's own indications, establish beyond question the subtlety and depth of Xenophon's political understanding. And the attention that Nadon pays to the transpolitical aspects of the work helps to introduce readers to the amazing resourcefulness of an author who, in versatility and gracefulness, was second to none of his great contemporaries."--Christopher Bruell, Professor of Political Science at Boston College, and author ofOn the Socratic Education: An Introduction to the Shorter Platonic DialoguesNadon, Christopher is the author of 'Xenophon's Prince Republic and Empire in the Cyropaedia', published 2001 under ISBN 9780520224049 and ISBN 0520224043.
