[PU: London ; New York : Routledge], XIII, 292 p., plates, maps. Original softcover. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Somewhat rubbed binding, somewhat stained bottom edge, otherwise very good and clean. / Etwas beriebener Einband, etwas angeschmutzter Fußschnitt, sonst sehr gut und sauber. - Exploratio is the first full survey of Roman military and political intelligence. The authors examine in detail the operation, infrastructure and development of Roman intelligence from its shaky beginnings to a high level of excellence. They identify who gathered it, for whom, and what happened to it. This study shows how intelligence (and the lack of it) affected policy formation at various levels, from the purely local through to the global. Austin and Rankov also demonstrate that most aspects of intelligence activity were not necessarily directed from Rome, but had for practical reasons to be carried out in the frontier provinces themselves. Exploratio is important reading for all students and teachers of Roman history. It will also appeal to those with a general interest in military, diplomatic and administrative history. - N. J. E. Austin is Associate Professor of Classics at Massey University in New Zealand. He also has considerable experience in military intelligence from active service. N. B. Rankov is Senior Lecturer in Classics and Ancient History at Royal Holloway, University of London. He has published widely on the Roman army and administration.
