4.Mesopotamia: Writing, Reasoning, and the GodsMesopotamia: Writing, Reasoning, and the Gods
from University Of Chicago Press
Price: $20.25

Customer Review:
If you're looking for information about Mesopotamia writing, religion and beliefs, this may NOT be the right book to read. While somehow interesting, it's far from being very informative. The author, Bottero, engages in a very non-scientific monologue about the Assyriology (very dull if you ask me)... more info

from The Johns Hopkins University Press
Price: $25.00

Customer Review:
I put this book at the top of my wish list, hoping to find in it a history of the development of writing in Sumer and a description of how the writing system operates. Instead I found a long-winded, repetitive discussion in the French philosophical tradition of the nature of reality and whether... more info

This is a great book for any ancient historian. The author does a thorough survey of the methodology of ancient history and the nature of history itself.
