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").
