The essay on love is very interesting. The rest are only moderately so. I do enjoy the reincarnation/after-life discussion. ( )

Plato was an interesting philosopher. At times he contradicted himself outright. But in a way, I think I prefer it like that. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0451527453, Paperback)

"In Rouse's pages, Soctrates' strength of mind, his dedication to the philosophical truth, are borne in on the modern reader with something of the power that impressed and disturbed the ancient Greeks."--Time

"There has been no adequate translation of Plato since Jowett...and I think Rouse has done it." --Dudley Fitts

* Rouse is one of the world's most respected classical scholars
