Title: The Greatest of the Socratic Dialogues
Review: To disagree with "seth," this is one of the best translations of Plato's greatest work I have ever read. The Penguin Classics translations make the works accessible to the modern reader because at the time they were written they were accessible to the average educated person. Plato did not write his "Republic" in an obscure, confusing style, and it should certainly not be read in a translation of that type. Of course, to be ultimately truthful, one should always read the original. As most cannot do that, I suggest taking an easy-to-read prose translation of all the great works, which the Penguin Classics series provides.
