Focuses on the philosophy and argument of Plato's writings, drawing the reader into Plato's way of doing philosophy and the general themes of his thinking. This work discusses his style of writing: his use of the dialogue form, his use of what we call fiction, and his philosophical transformation of myths.

1. Arguing with Plato; 2. Plato's name, and other matters; 3. Drama, fiction and the elusive author; 4. Love, sex, gender and philosophy; 5. Vitue in me and in my society; 6. My soul and myself; 7. The nature of things
