About this ebook

Why should anyone act justly when no one is watching? What could make knowledge more than a lucky true belief? This original English introduction follows Plato's dialogues through justice, the divided soul, education, the Good, the cave, and the Forms. Eighteen focused chapters test the city's political costs and the Parmenides' challenges to participation, with new contemporary examples and a chapter-to-source map. The book distinguishes Plato's characters from the historical Socrates and treats unresolved questions as part of the inquiry. It is not a translation.
