Alexander the Great synopsis

All we know about Alexander comes from ancient sources, which unanimously agree that he was exceptional and larger than everyday humans. From his birth to an overly competitive world of royal women through his training under the eyes and fists of the stern soldiers and the piercing mind of Aristotle.

Through friendships, rivalries, conquests and negotiations. Through the work of generosity and murder, this book explains who Alexander was, what motivated him, where he succeeded (in his eyes), where he failed, and how he was thought to have acquired a new "mixed" nature that combined man and God.

This book explains what made Alexander "great" according to the people and the expectations of his time and place and rejects the recent assertions confirmed on the basis of moral superiority implicit in ancient times.
