The Oxford Handbook of Plato offers 20 chapters, newly commissioned
and written by leading scholars, on Plato's dialogues and the
basic philosophical issues of interest to Plato which remain
central in philosophy to this day.
The collection succeeds remarkably well in offering fresh perspectives on a number of themes in Plato's work while avoiding excessive scholarly wrangling or overly technical discussions of individual passages... the collection accomplishes what should be its primary purpose -- turning readers toward Plato with a fresh set of interpretive perspectives and questions for further exploration. Ravi Sharma, Bryn Mawr Classical Review ...this is an excellent volume through and through...a fine book that will be of some use to scholars, and even more to beginners and others who want to get a sense of some of the issues scholars must confront in the study of Plato. Nicholas D. Smith, Polis
