Making Sense of Arcesilaus
According to the dogmatic interpretation of the Academic philosopher Arcesilaus, he held, among other philosophical views, the view that nothing can be known and the view one ought to suspend judgment about everything.

The Cambridge Companion to Ancient Scepticism
This volume offers a comprehensive survey of the main periods, schools, and individual proponents of scepticism in the ancient Greek and Roman world. The contributors examine the major developments chronologically and historically, ranging from the early antecedents of scepticism to the Pyrrhonist tradition.
