    @Larsheen - Hi, could you please include the name of the translator of each of the ancient Greek/Roman texts please? It's just that some of the lecturers have a habit of changing editions from year to year. Not much point in buying the wrong one, since the extracts that come up in the exams are from very particular translations.
