Many a good Greek scholar must have lived and died with less of a real knowledge of Plato after years of study, than a thoughtful English reader may receive from this book in a week."-EXAMINER, April, 1856.

"No man in England is more competent than Professor Thompson to pronounce upon the value of any contribution to this branch of ancient learning; and he says,

"Of the dialectic and physics of Plato they are the only exposition at once full, accurate, and popular, with which I am acquainted: being far more accurate than the French, and incomparably more popular than the German treatises on these departments of the Platonic philosophy."

manly minds."-EDINBURGH REVIEW, Jan. 1856.
