Review:
"A comprehensive introduction by Peter Burian explores major themes and structures."--Publishers Weekly"A very readable and passionate translation. Euripides' pathos comes out well."--Clifford Broenimur, University of Massachusetts at Amherst"Thanks for an excellent version of this important text."--Professor David Hopes, UNCA"Euripedes' Ion has much to recommend it to today's reader or dramatic producer....Ion can be used in myth-courses (an excellent text on Apollo), drama-in-translation courses, and also women-in-antiquity courses, since Kreousa exemplifies in miniature the plight of ancient women....The new addition to the Greek Tragedies in New Translatioins...presents a marvellously balanced introduction to the play."--Bryn Mawr Classical Review

He is particularly admired by modern audiences and readers for his astute and balanced depiction of human behavior. "Medea" is his most famous work.
