Description

Part of the ALL-NEW LADYBIRD EXPERT SERIES

- Why do humans form societies and what is needed for them to thrive?
- How can women s potential be actualized?
- How can we protect ourselves from demagogues and tyrants?

IMMERSE yourself in the strikingly relevant questions of Plato s influential dialogue, exploring the age old dilemma: Why should I be just? What is a just society, and how can it be created?

ACCESSIBLE. AUTHORITATIVE. TIMELY.

Written by distinguished philosopher and professor Angie Hobbs, Plato s Republic is the essential introduction to a text that helped shape all Western literature and philosophy.
