Greek Ways: How the Greeks Created Western Civilization

Bruce Thornton

Writing with wit and erudition, Thornton discusses in fascinating detail those areas of Greek life - sexuality and sexual roles; slavery and war; philosophy and politics - that some modern critics have made into contested sites. Perhaps more importantly, he also reclaims the importance of those core ideas the Greeks invented, ideas about human fate and purpose that have shaped the modern world.
