Charles H Kahn is Professor of Philosophy, University of Pennsylvania.
Kahn's excellent knowledge of the texts is apparent and his
familiarity with the scholarly literature is manifest. . . . The
volume is attractively written and and produced, and will do a real
service in making the Pythagorean tradition . . . accessible to
non-specialists. --Richard McKirahan, Philosophy in Review
This book provides an excellent overview of the development of
Pythagorean theory after Pythagoras. Kahn's narrative is lucid and
his judgment reliable. . . . This brief survey is admirably
comprehensive in its treatment of Pythagorean influences. --Daniel
W. Graham, Ancient Philosophy
This book, written by one of the world's leading authorities on
ancient philosophy, combines a lucid overview of the broad sweep of
the Pythagorean tradition, appropriate for readers new to the
subject, with new scholarly insights, which will make it essential
reading for scholars as well. There really is no comparable
up-to-date volume available in English. It is a wonderful book.
--Carl Huffman, DePauw University
