The Complete Plato

Plato

Editorial: Zenith Whispering Pines Publishers

Sinopsis

"The Safest General Characterization of the European Philosophical Tradition Is That It Consists of a Series of Footnotes to Plato."

Plato did not just write philosophy; he invented the way the Western world thinks. As the prize pupil of Socrates and the teacher of Aristotle, Plato captured the birth of logic, ethics, and metaphysics in the form of dramatic, engaging dialogues. This comprehensive collection brings together his entire body of work, offering a timeless map for anyone seeking to understand justice, beauty, and the nature of reality itself.

Inside this monumental collection, you will explore:

The Socratic Method in Action: Experience the "Elenchus"—the art of the cross-examination—as Socrates systematically dismantles the assumptions of his peers to uncover deeper truths.

The Theory of Forms: Delve into the radical idea that the physical world is merely a shadow of a higher, perfect reality, and learn how to train the mind to "see" beyond the surface.

The Blueprint for the Just Society: Explore profound meditations on governance, the education of the "Philosopher King," and the delicate balance between individual freedom and social order.

Ethics and the Human Soul: Engage with timeless inquiries into the nature of virtue, the immortality of the soul, and the pursuit of the "Good Life."

Plato's writing remains as vital today as it was in the Academy of Athens. His dialogues are not dry lectures, but living debates that challenge the reader to participate in the search for wisdom. This volume is the essential cornerstone for any library of humanities, political science, and classical studies.

Begin your journey toward the light. Buy "The Complete Plato" today and master the art of thinking.

Why We Believe - Finding Meaning...

Alister McGrath

Belief: surely it's a relic from the past, a hangover from a superstitious age that is totally out of sync with today's rational, science-led culture?
'A timely, often bracing and always highly stimulating book.' Tom Holland, author of Dominion and co-host of The Rest is History
In today's science-driven, rational world, belief is dismissed as an artefact of a bygone era – something absurd at best, harmful at worst. The prevailing narratives paint belief as primitive, weird, even dangerous.
But as life grows ever more confusing and our societies more atomised, contemplating something bigger than ourselves has never been more vital.
Alister McGrath offers a fresh perspective on belief, presenting it not as a weakness of rational thought but as an essential tool for navigating uncertainty. Elegant and thought-provoking, Why We Believe reveals how belief provides meaning in the face of existential despair, how it fosters community and offers solace.
As society moves beyond the dismissive rhetoric surrounding people of faith, here is a powerful manifesto for the re-enchantment of the Western mind.
'Scholarly, compulsively readable and with gems of information on every page... a must read.' Revd Fergus Butler-Gallie, author of A Field Guide to the English Clergy
