Plato

To my surprise, the author expresses strongly negative opinions towards some of Plato's conclusions, while maintaining that Plato "asked the right questions." The author presents Plato as a proto-fascist.

The book is great at giving a feel for who the whole of Plato was as a person. The book is not so great at explaining all of the theories of Plato.

Make sure to read the Aristotle book first, then hit this one. Two good reads.
