"Gaca's book makes a valuable contribution to the history of sexual ethics in antiquity and will be indispensable reading for all scholars and students interested in that topic."--Virginia Burrus, Jrnl of Early Christian Stds



"Gaca's ability to navigate confidently across both the Greek philosophical tradition and the Septuagint is as rare as it is valuable. An eye-opener." --Kate Cooper, Times Literary Supplement (TLS), 5 November 2004, p. 14



"Rich. . . .Gaca's detailed analysis of the several traditions, and her incorporation of the Septuagint, NT, and Philo in the argument, mark a significant advance over Foucault's analysis in The History of Sexuality. Indispensable to future research on the subject and should be in every university library."--David Konstan, Religious Studies Review



"With lucidity and a sustained examination of a synthetic Christian ethical concept, Gaca's fine book supplements social histories..."--P.W. Wakefield, Choice: Current Reviews For Academic Libraries
