      abstract = {"The Republic is Plato's masterwork. It was written 2,400  years ago and remains one of the most widely read books in  the world, famous for both the richness of its ideas and  the virtuosity of its writing. Presented as a dialogue  between Plato's teacher Socrates and various interlocutors,  it is an exhortation to study philosophy, inviting its  readers to reflect on the choices we must make if we are to  live the best life available to us. This complex, dynamic  work creates a picture of an ideal society governed not  money, power, or fame, but by philosophy, wisdom, and  justice."--Publisher's website.},
