In Athena Itonia Gerald V. Lalonde offers a comparative study of the social, political and military aspects of the cult of Athena Itonia and its propagation among the four regions of ancient Greece where major evidence has come to light.

"The study by Gerald Lalonde is the first monograph dedicated exclusively to this subject and will thus provide a reference book for any future work connected with this goddess (…) One of the merits of Lalonde's investigation is his ability to argue for his thesis with the full range of extant evidence, rather than relying on hypothetical and unattested connections." - Salvatore Tufano, Sapienza Università di Roma, Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2020.06.06.
