I haven&#8217;t read the book you&#8217;re referencing to know whether you&#8217;re presenting their views well or not. It&#8217;s okay to use other works as sources for objections of course but focus needs to be on Sextus and throughout it seems to be on Annas and Barnes. Again, this would be less of an issue if you focused on one particular argument\/interpretation from Sextus but there are a lot of potential objections you cite that lack some needed explanation.<br><strong>REQUIRED SOURCE:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sextus Empiricus, <em>Outlines of Skepticism<\/em> Julia Annas and Jonathan Barnes (ed.)
