From the rear cover

"An up-to-date critical examination of the evidence for religious practices in Hellenistic Athens. This is a balanced study that truly advances knowledge of the subject."--Stephen V. Tracy, Ohio State University

"Mikalson confronts the long-standing and widespread notion . . . that Hellenistic religion represented a falling-off from the authentic and vigorous beliefs of the classical era. He persuasively demolishes this view, demonstrating the continuing vitality of traditional cults, rites, and divinities."--Erich S. Gruen, University of California, Berkeley
