2.		Myths from Mesopotamia: Creation, the Flood, Gilgamesh and Others (Oxford World's Classics) from Oxford Paperbacks Price: £6.99 Customer Review: This, though billed as an edition for the general reader, really isn't. The texts, instead of being worked up into a continuous narrative as in some other versions, are presented exactly as they appear in the original sources: disjointed, repetitive, incomplete.

For many years, the only really good work on Mespot was A. J. Barker's masterly "The Neglected War", published by Faber and Faber in 1967.
