Review
-- Willis G. Regier, "Modern Language Notes"
" This is a stunning philological work. . It patiently connects and disconnects logical, rhetorical, and historical links between dogma, myth, and ideology, their establishments in religion, law, and science, and the critiques that singe and sear them.... Robert M. Wallace's work is a model of scholarly translation, ambitious and carefully executed." -- Willis G. Regier, "Modern Language Notes"
