"This elegant edition contains many of the best and most readable English translations of the Dialogues and Letters... Judiciously edited, beautifully printed."--Review of Metaphysics

All the writings of Plato generally considered to be authentic are here presented in the only complete one-volume Plato available in English. The editors set out to choose the contents of this collected edition from the work of the best British and American translators of the last 100 years, ranging from Jowett (1871) to scholars of the present day. The volume contains prefatory notes to each dialogue, by Edith Hamilton; an introductory essay on Plato's philosophy and writings, by Huntington Cairns; and a comprehensive index which seeks, by means of cross references, to assist the reader with the philosophical vocabulary of the different translators.

“Superlative. . . . [The book’s] translations remain for me the Platonic Forms of the Platonic dialogues. They are the voice of Socrates and his interlocutors that I hear when I think about the questions which Plato so vividly dramatized for us two millennia ago. They are voices and questions which continue to resonate today.”—Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author of Plato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won’t Go Away
