Title: Socrates and the immoralists
First published: 2005
Description: "Curtis N. Johnson, by focusing specifically on the dialogues with the "immoralists"--Polus, Callicles, and Thrasymachus - illuminates the complexities of Socrates' thought, illustrates the complicated interplay of the seemingly contradictory parts of Socrates' ambition, and ultimately vindicates the overall coherence of the philosopher's views. Socrates and the Immoralists is an in-depth exploration of Socrates' argument for the just life, valuable to scholars of Socrates, Plato, and Greek philosophy in general."--Jacket.
