*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.
