The book originated as a companion to an exhibition at the Museum and an associated undergraduate course, but remains a useful catalogue to the Museum's collection of coins of Philip II,
Alexander the Great, their antecedents in Macedonia, and their successors in the Hellenistic world. Arnold-Biucchi, curator of the Museum's numismatic collection, also provides an introduction
to the role of numismatics in reconstructing ancient Greek history and culture. There is no index. Annotation 穢2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
