Reviews

'Scott's clear analysis and considered judgments illuminate previously dark corners of the dialogue ... the great value of Scott's book lies in the stimulating questions it raises and in the often novel and always carefully supported ideas it advances. it should not be missed by anyone interested in Plato's Meno.'
