Reviews
`This book is essential reading for whoever wants to understand Spain today and its protagonists, both individual and collective. In the best British tradition, recent politics here becomes history.' - Times Literary Supplement
`The range of material now used for Ancient History and other Studies of the ancient world is far greater than a generation ago. The series Approaching the Ancient World makes such material accessible to many students, demystifies technical topics, and provides a guide to the problems and possibilities of using a rich variety of sources and approaches.' - Beryl Rawson, Australian National University
