This book provides an introduction to Plato's work that gives a
clear statement of what Plato has to say about the problems of
thought and life. In particular, it tells the reader just what
Plato says, and makes no attempt to force a system on the Platonic
text or to trim Plato's works to suit contemporary philosophical
tastes. The author also gives an account that has historical
fidelity - we cannot really understand the Republic or the Gorgias
if we forget that the Athens of the conversations is meant to be
the Athens of Nicias or Cleon, not the very different Athens of
Plato's own manhood. To understand Plato's thought we must see it
in the right historical perspective.
