Reviews
“Rod Jenks explores a number of Plato’s most perplexing images, and seeks to explain these both specifically, but also very generally, within Plato’s overall philosophical program.” – Prof. Nicholas D. Smith Lewis & Clark College
“… a delight to read … delivers us the Plato that gave up writing literature only to put it back in his philosophy.” – Prof. Chad Weiner Portland State University
