"The Republic" deals with almost the whole range of Plato's thought, but is particularly concerned with what makes a well-balanced society and individual. It combines argument with myth to advocate a life organized by reason rather than dominated by leisures and appetites.
From AudioFile
Plato's musings on how society should function, as well as the nature of the people who inhabit society, is read by Bruce Alexander in this abridgment. The recording and Alexander's performance are flawless. A veteran Shakespearean actor, Alexander has a voice that is rich and versatile in portraying each of the speakers in this dialogue. His accent also has an air of authority. He makes one suppose that the ancient Greek philosophers went to Oxford. This work is really delightful to hear as one follows the course of Socrates' arguments and the questions thrown at him by the Athenians. The packaging is sturdy, and the enclosed outline is most helpful. Music at the beginning and end of each side does not distract from the performance. A wonderful introduction to Plato. M.T.F.

Plato is a name that has been abused most brutally, the second would be Mona Lisa. I really just wanna know what he really has said instead of what other people have said about him. To perfectly honest, it is a book that's beyond boring, good luck with me

评分书非借而不能读焉,“借”得了,手头的书不禁放下了
评分与商务的中译本对照阅读,还蛮多不同的。
