Description:
Hardback. New. The impulse to try to anticipate the future, and make sense of apparently random events, is irrepressible. This title explores the legacy of ancient Greek notions of luck, fate and fortune in our own era. It also explores some of the key ideas of ancient Greek culture that resonate with modern conceptions of destiny.
