Críticas:
"Alexander's reign is the focus of a rich scholarly literature, but bringing the results of that scholarship into the classroom is difficult because it is not easy for students to access. All teachers of ancient history, therefore, will welcome this book. This excellent source book belongs in all university and college libraries. Essential." -S.M. Burstein, "Choice

This exciting new volume is an indispensable guide for undergraduates to the study of Alexander the Great, showing the problems of the ancient source material, and making it clear that there is no single approach to be taken.

- the sources
- Alexander's background

- Alexander and the Greeks
- Alexander and Asia
- Alexander, India and the Final Years
- Alexander as General
- Alexander and "The unity of Mankind"

The Reader has the distinctive feature of translating a substantial number of the more inaccessible primary sources; each chapter is also prefaced with a succinct introduction to the topic under consideration.
