Socrates was not a moral philosopher. Instead he was a theorist who
showed how human desire and human knowledge complement one another
in the pursuit of human happiness. His theory allowed him to
demonstrate that actions and objects have no value other than that
which they derive from their employment by individuals who,
inevitably, desire their own happiness and have the knowledge to
use actions and objects as a means for its attainment. The result
is a naturalised, practical, and demystified account of good and
bad, and right and wrong. Professor Reshotko presents a freshly
envisioned Socratic theory residing at the intersection of the
philosophy of mind and ethics. It makes an important contribution
to the study of the Platonic dialogues and will also interest all
scholars of ethics and moral psychology.
