Rich in drama and humour, they include the controversial Ion, a debate on poetic inspiration; Laches, in which Socrates seeks to define bravery; and Euthydemus, which considers the relationship between philosophy and politics. Together, these dialogues provide a definitive portrait of the real Socrates and raise issues still keenly debated by philosophers, forming an incisive overview of Plato's philosophy.

Socrates' most dedicated student, Plato, offers a detailed and eye-opening account of the Socratic belief in one's own responsibility through Socrates' dialogue with his fellow Athenians. It provides a complete portrait of the enigmatic philosopher. This collection includes six of Plato's dialogues focusing on the life of Socrates: Charmides, in which Socrates discusses the meaning of restraint; Symposium, depicting a contest of speeches and rhetoric over the subject of love; Euthyphro, in which Socrates and Euthyphro ponder the meaning of piety; Apology which includes Socrates' defence from his trial; and Phaedo which recounts the day of Socrates death. All parts come together to create a moving read for newly curious philosophy students and experienced intellectuals alike.

For the Pre-Socratic philosophers the soul was the source of movement and sensation, while for Plato it was the seat of being, metaphysically distinct from the body that it was forced temporarily to inhabit. Plato's student Aristotle was determined to test the truth of both these beliefs against the emerging sciences of logic and biology. His examination of the huge variety of living organisms - the enormous range of their behaviour, their powers and their perceptual sophistication - convinced him of the inadequacy both of a materialist reduction and of a Platonic sublimation of the soul. In De Anima, he sought to set out his theory of the soul as the ultimate reality of embodied form and produced both a masterpiece of philosophical insight and a psychology of perennially fascinating subtlety.

'Nothing can harm a good man either in life or after death' The trial and condemnation of Socrates on charges of heresy and corrupting young minds is a defining moment in the history of classical Athens. In tracing these events through four dialogues, Plato also developed his own philosophy of a life guided by self-responsibility. Euthyphro finds Socrates outside the court-house, debating the nature of piety, while the Apology is his robust rebuttal of the charges against him. In the Crito, awaiting execution in prison, Socrates counters the arguments of friends urging him to escape. Finally, in the Phaedo, he is shown calmly confident in the face of death.
