"A model of the kind of text one needs for lecture courses: the translation is
extremely readable and made even more accessible by intelligent printing
decisions (on dividing the text, spacing for clarification, etc.); the notes are kept
to a minimum but appear when they are really needed for comprehension and
are truly informative." - S. G. Nugent, Princeton University

Plato

Plato ranks among the most familiar ancient philosophers, along with his teacher, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle.

In addition to writing philosophical dialogues - used to teach logic, ethics, rhetoric, religion, and mathematics as well as philosophy - he founded Athens' Academy, the Western world's first institution of higher learning.
