Penguin Classics All Books Editorial Review
The editorial review discusses the book "Plato's Republic" and emphasizes how great a writer Plato was, and how he engaged readers in his detailed and lengthy conversations. The translation by Robin Waterfield is highly recommended for its precise language and more personal tone. The review also highlights that many critics attribute more dogmatism to Plato than intended. The book is a thought experiment, and the ideal state is a notion to be thought about but cannot be realized due to human nature. The dialogue is full of questions and ideas, and the education discussed in the book applies to everyone, not just the rulers. The reproduction quality is excellent, and the notes assist readers in navigating the many digressions.
