Michael Dirda has a fairly uncritical review of the US edition of
James Davidson's /The Greeks and Greek Love/ (New York : Random
House 2009; original edition London : Weidenfeld & Nicolson
2007) in the Washington Post at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/06/17/AR2009061703407.html
I do wonder why the original subtitle ("A radical reappraisal of
Homosexuality in Ancient Greece") has been dropped in favour of
such an anodyne and inaccurately non-descriptive new one for US
audiences ("A Bold New Exploration of the Ancient World").
