Quando vuoi fare un regalo e non hai un'idea precisa di cosa regalare, bisognerebbe donare un libro. Non c'è bisogno di una ricorrenza specifica: è sempre bello donare un libro. Veicola sempre un messaggio, un'idea, un sogno. Peccato che ogni volta che regalo un libro, il più delle volte la gente si incazzi...

If you want to make a gift and you have no idea about what to buy, well donating a book it's always a good choice. It's no necessary to wait for a specific occasion: it's always something good. A book materializes messages, ideas, dreams. Yet anytime I give a book as a gift in the majority of cases, people tend to get angry...

M. Finley: "The Ancient Greeks"

This is a very good book which, with great competence and out of the ordinary, describes the most relevant and essential aspects of the ancient greek culture.

I consider this book an essential tool to understand and broaden our knowledge not only about history but also about important elements of our present culture.

Its reading is pleasant and not excessively for specialists. Surely this is not a book suitable for all readers but I suggest its reading to history and ancient culture enthusiasts.
