It's worth noting that this is now available again---in a
Sandpiper edition, of course.

It's too bad that Oxford never commissioned an abridgement
of Barrett's commentary, rather along the lines of the
"Little Jebbs" Cambridge used to issue.   The Full Barrett
paradoxically makes it too hard and too easy for undergrads:
he offers far too much commentary for them, and he translates
too much.

By the way, I'm assuming that Diana was looking for a
Greek text and commentary.  Otherwise, there is Daniel
Halleran's Focus translation and commentary.
