Authorship note
Diogenes Laertius mentions collections of letters to Philip, Alexander, Antipater and others. Those that survive are mostly Hellenistic or later forgeries; some letters transmitted in Arabic, such as the one addressed to Alexander on the government of cities, are of highly disputed authenticity.
