Plato records the dialogues of his teacher Socrates in a number of situations and about a number of concepts, including goodness (virtue) and the origin and limits of human knowledge. The five dialogues also tell the story of the days leading up to Socrates' arrest, trial, and death. This book is a good one for anyone wishing to consider the history of Western thought, ponder some mind-bending questions, or just entertain oneself with Socrates' sarcastic wit. #SummerReading
