`It is an excellent book: simply the best and most up-to-date
full-length treatment of this central philosophical work.'
Times Literary Supplement
`This book is a tour de force in the Oxford tradition of
philosophical commentaries.'
Review of Metaphysics
`David Bostock's analysis of the argument of the dialogue and the
issues it raises ... does ample justice to its complexity and
depth.'
Greece and Rome
`Bostock performs a valuable service of pointing out the
inadequacies of Plato's arguments, and readers will not have to
accept all interpretations presented here in order to benefit from
this study.'
Religious Studies Review, Volume 16, Number 4/October 1990
`The book displays Bostock's characteristic virtues: it is
admirably clear; it is highly intelligent; and it is often
insightful and thought-provoking.'
The Philosophical Review, Vol. C, No. 4 (October 1991)
