Review Quotes:
"Karamanolis has breathed new life into the study of the role of philosophy in Early Christianity, and it is to be hoped that this work will strengthen the momentum towards new scholarship, among scholars working on Ancient Philosophy as well, that also revisits the hardest questions." - Rhizomata
"...The work is a highly useful and valuable contribution both to the field of early Christian studies and to ancient philosophy in general, particularly the latter. K. provides an excellent introduction to a corner of the intellectual milieu in the ancient world that is often unrecognised or even dismissed, when in fact the rise of Christian thought would play a role in the development of non-Christian philosophy." - The Classical Review
