This a work devoted to one of the ancient world's most famous philosophers. Included in the book are four books, known as dialogs. These take place during the year that turned out to be Socrates' last. They have been assembled as a group of four. These are individually entitled: Euthyphro, the Apology, Crito, and the Phaedo. Readers interested in discovering the plot as they proceed should avoid reading the introductions until the end, as "all is revealed" in them.
