Even - and especially - when one disagrees with this stimulating and daring work, one learns a great deal from it. It is a remarkably ambitious book, one that attempts to put forth an interpretation of Plato's entire corpus and its role in Western civilization.\" - Peter Ahrensdorf, Davidson College.","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49400032395607,"sku":"9780226470962","price":80.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/how-philosophy-became-socratic-9780226470962","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
