This book contains a selection from three of his satires: \u003ci\u003eSatire\u003c\/i\u003e 6 attacks women and marriage, \u003ci\u003eSatire\u003c\/i\u003e 14 critiques the role played by parents in the education of children and \u003ci\u003eSatire\u003c\/i\u003e 15 describes all too vividly the cannibalism perpetrated by warring Egyptians.
