\"In this exemplary book, Josiah Ober, one of the foremost international authorities on ancient Greek political, economic, and intellectual history, persuasively explains why and how ancient Greek communities and individuals managed--and sometimes failed--to flourish culturally and materially.\"--Paul Cartledge, author of The Spartans: The World of the Warrior-Heroes of Ancient Greece\"This is a groundbreaking book on the ancient world. Displaying the narrative skill of a master historian, The Rise and Fall of Classical Greece is must reading.\"--Barry Strauss, author of The Death of Caesar: The Story of History's Greatest Assassination\"Remarkable. . . . [The Rise and Fall of Classical Greece] deserves a very broad readership in political science across subfields. It brings Greek antiquity into the 21st century.\"--S. Sara Monoson, Perspectives on Politics\"An astonishing work. If you want to know what the fuss is about the ancient Greeks, this is the book to start with.\"--John Ma, University of Oxford\"This excellent book presents a wealth of new evidence on the economic performance of ancient Greece, and how that performance was linked to democratic institutions. The data that Ober presents are truly extraordinary. Moreover, the main story is well presented, well argued, and thoroughly enjoyable to read.\"--Robert Fleck, Clemson University
