Overall, this edition has good translations and all the genuine dialogues, but many typos.
P.S. If, while reading, you feel like Parmenides is the most difficult text you've ever encountered, don't give up! Just keep pushing through, getting out of it as much as you can-- I don't think anyone really understands it!
Socrates believes that you (yes, you!) are an Oracle. That little voice in your head that knows what’s right? That’s both easy and hard to ignore? The cricket that chirps when you’re feeling guilty? Your true self that knows what needs to be done? That is the miracle worker; it’s an angel in your mind. Abide there and watch what happens. You’re capable of anything, bearing any trial, if your actions are aligned with what you know to be right. Try it out for a few days!
For more thoughts like these, this may be the book for you. Take care, friends!
Without sound theory our philosphical outlook becomes based on experience and we all should know by now similar experiences yield vaired responses in unique individuals. And from that, practical application becomes an unsustainable mess...
The problem being, very few of us study theory, we jump straight to experience and from that diversity of thought, which should be a beautiful thing, becomes our undoing. Simple solution is make learning theory part of your routine and pass it along.
Is one thing reading a handbook to learn how to think. But for me has been superior observing Plato illustrate the power of analysis by skillfully having Theodore, Theaetetus, Socrates, and the Eleactic Stranger dissect points and nuances that easily would be lost on a reader.
