Plato's Republic: A Biography (Books That Changed the World) &#8220Aclear and accessible introduction to philosophy&#8217sfirst superstar&#8221by the author of On Truth and Think, one of our great contemporary philosophers (Kirkus Reviews).Plato is perhaps the most significant philosopher who ever lived and&nbspTheRepublic, composed in Athens in about 375 BC, is widely regarded as his most famous dialogue. Its discussion of the perfect city&#8212an the perfect mind&#8212lad the foundations for Western culture and has been the cornerstone of Western philosophy. As the distinguished Cambridge professor Simon Blackburn points out, it has probably sustained more commentary, and been subject to more radical and impassioned disagreement, than almost any other text in the modern world. &#8220Aprovocative companion to an essential text&#8221(Publishers Weekly),&nbspPlao&#8217sRepublic&nbspexpores the judicial, moral, and political ideas in The Republic with dazzling insight. Blackburn also examines&nbspTheRepublic&#8217snbspinfluence and staying power, and shows why, from St. Augustine to twentieth-century philosophers such as Ludwig Wittgenstein, Western thought is still conditioned by this most important, and contemporary, of books.&#8220Plto&#8217sRepublic&nbsp . . which Blackburn rightly suggests is the first book to shake the world, is loaded with perennial questions that every generation must struggle with. How are we to live our lives? What is virtue and can it be taught? Are pleasure and good the same?&#8221#8212The Independent&#8220Phlosopher Simon Blackburn has written a new book
