"Reeve''s new translation of Republic is the one to order for students. . . . Reeve draws on his thorough understanding of Plato''s central work to provide an informed translation and properly brief supporting apparatus.

A highlight is the concise, substantive Introduction that usefully encapsulates much of Reeve''s own scholarship."
