[Michael McGrinder · Rating 1 out of 5]

I read this a long time ago, circa 1970, when I was researching Hypatia for a play I was writing. Information on Hypatia was hard to find in those pre-internet days and there was a great deal of conjecture about her. This was the silliest and poorest written book I read on the subject. Even Hubbard's quote from Hypatia is made up; the woman wrote nothing, certainly nothing that survived.
