The Republic poses questions that endure: What is justice? What form of community fosters the best possible life for human beings? What is the nature and destiny of the soul? What form of education provides the best leaders for a good republic? What are the various forms of poetry and the other arts, and which ones should be fostered and which ones should be discouraged? How does knowing differ from believing?

Several characters in the dialogue present a variety of tempting answers to those questions. Cephalus, Polemarchus, Thrasymachus, and Glaucon all offer definitions of justice. Socrates, Glaucon, and Adeimantus explore five different forms of republic and evaluate the merits of each from the standpoint of goodness.

Two contrasting models of education are proposed and examined. Three different forms of poetry are identified and analyzed. The difference between knowing and believing is discussed in relation to the objects of each kind of thinking.

Even 2,400 years on, the wisdom of Socrates, as expressed by Plato, provides plenty of food for thought on the nature of justice, good & evil, and the ideal society. While some of the views expressed may be rather outdated today (surprise surprise), the logical reasoning and debating skills of Socrates is captivating, and much of the questions of society still resonate today.

Since the book plays as a dialogue between several Athenians, it lends itself perfectly to the audiobook format and the superb narration makes it feel like you're listening to a very natural conversation rather than people reading from a script. You can almost visualise these toga-wearing gentlemen sitting beneath a tree somewhere in 4th century BCE Athens.

Very easy to listen to and very gripping for anyone interested in logical reasoning, debating, philosophy, or society.

Exactly what I hoped it would be

Having different actors playing different roles greatly increases the sense that you are listening to a
dialogue.It also shows the humour that is often missed by a plodding delivery.

Excellent performance
