A review by rougemoon
The Republic by Plato

informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

One of the foundational text of western philosophy. If you were to pick just one book to get a good grasp on Plato's philosophy, you really couldn't go wrong with The Republic. His metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and politics are included in this one book. Some of his shorter dialogues are often recommended for beginners, but I think The Republic is very manageable, as long as you're willing to stick with it.
