Title: Liberal rhetoric Review: Liberal rhetoric. Left-wing propaganda. Annoying, and telling, that the agenda was that obvious less than half way through the book. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Get another translation. Review: This is one of my favorite Platonic dialogues, an analysis of both rhetoric and love which leads to some compelling discussions. However, the translation offered by Pengin Classics is hideously lacking. I can't put my finger on exactly where it goes wrong, but the translator makes it a pain to get through just one page. Everything seems laborous and technical, including the normally exquisite speeches.Get another translation instead. Might I suggest the one published by Hackett? Or perhaps Cornell University Press? Both of those translations take care to make the dialogue as lively annd exciting as it rightfully should be. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: If at first you don't succeed..... Review: I found this book very difficult to finnish. It started out pretty interesting however by the second/third chapter it became very hard to finnish. The characters were given great introductions however they were not fully developed until the very end. I would say the beginning and the ending of the book was great.If you can get to the ending you will be quite pleased. I am sure readers would like to know what Manny and Tandy are doing since their betrayal to Lauren. I understand that this book could be made into a series somewhat like Soul Food. If so it would be a mega hit!!! Is the review positive or negative?
