This book is intended for Prizes won etc.

Paideia is intended for the general reader, and it is probably God's gift to educators, because it conveys to the reader, in a clear and attractive form, covering the ground comprehensively, a conception of the central point of view in Hellenic society and culture. * Edmund Wilson, The New Yorker *
The most illuminating work I have ever read on Greece. * Edith Hamilton, The New York Times Book Review. *
