For Plato, the answer lies with the ways people, groups, and institutions organize and behave. A brilliant inquiry into the problems of constructing the perfect state, and the roles education, the arts, family, and religion should play in our lives, &&LIRepublic&&L/I employs picturesque settings, sharply outlined characters, and conversational dialogue to drive home the philosopher's often provocative arguments.&&LP style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&&LBRIt has been said that the entire history of Western philosophy consists of nothing more than "a series of footnotes to Plato." Vastly entertaining, occasionally shocking, and always stimulating, &&LIRepublic&&L/I continues to enrich and expand the outlook of all who read it.&&LBR&&L/P&&LP style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&&LSTRONGElizabeth Watson Scharffenberger&&L/B&&L/B holds degrees from the University of Chicago and Columbia University.
