Pros/Cons

Does anybody own pic related? I am considering purchasing, but worry about translation quality, readability, and whether there are any glaring omissions.

Thanking you in advance,

It's the academic standard

Plato wasn't actually that great. You can find much better.

It's pretty much the go to for Plato. The pages are really thin but it had to fit in one volume.

Elaborate.

Jump in, user. Plato's a badass.

I have read him thoroughly, but it was so long ago. Then I picked up "The Hero With A Thousand Faces" and there was some discussion about the forms of the good, and uniting principles, and I couldn't tell if he was right or not, and then I realized how much I'd forgotten after years of sitting in a law office, slowly rotting and dying off.

This is an agent of my rebirth.

It's solid. I don't think any of the translations (excepting the Diskin Clay) are exceptional or even the best, but they're serviceable and certainly readable.

Thanks for the recommendations, you stupid fuck.

Go outside, stare into the sun and scream "I live yet again!"
