Professor Angela Hobbs is Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield. She formerly held a Chair in Classical Studies at Warwick University. Most recently she has published Plato on War.
'The definitive guide to Plato and his place in the modern world, written with all the passion, insight and clarity he deserves. Hobbs is truly the most dependable bridge between us and the history of Greek thought' * Daisy Dunn, author of The Missing Thread: A New History of the Ancient World Through the Women Who Shaped It * Plato is for now - and for some forever. Professor Hobbs has been a fan since her late teens and conveys her - not uncritical - enthusiasm with unabashed and infectious joy. Her own philosophical readings are way more than just footnotes to the master's oh-so-sophisticated productions, and this is one of the very best general-coverage books on Plato to place in the hands of her nineteen-year-old avatars (and their seniors). * Paul Cartledge, author of Thebes: The Forgotten City of Ancient Greece *
