One of the greatest thinkers of the ancient world, Plato instigated groundbreaking inquiries into morality, ethics, and the quest for happiness that continue to inform and influence philosophical discussion today. In this outstanding work of scholarship, a renowned expert on Plato presents a scrupulously accurate historical view of the great philosopher's life and works. Distinguished by its dispassionate scholarly analysis, Professor Taylor's discourse is refreshingly free of the biases that have frequently tainted other studies.A brief introductory chapter acquaints readers with the known events of Plato's life. The author then proceeds to an illuminating examination of the philosopher's voluminous writings, including the minor Socratic dialogues, as well as such major works as Phaedo, Symposium, Protagoras, Republic, Phaedrus, Timaeus, Laws, and other influential dialogues. The final chapter, "Plato in the Academy," attempts to pin down -- with the help of some of Plato's former students, such as Aristotle -- the philosopher's beliefs about numbers. In a substantial appendix, "The Platonic Apocrypha," Professor Taylor examines writings that have sometimes been attributed to Plato, including several letters, and offers cogent reasons for accepting or rejecting them as Plato's work.
Praised by Dean William R. Inge of Theology as "a great book, an honour to ... British scholarship," this volume is an invaluable guide for students, teachers, and other readers interested in philosophy.

Broken after 6 weeks of use
Color: White
Bought this so I didn’t have to heat my milk before frothing. No longer heated after 6 weeks. Too late to return. I consider this a bad buy. Wound up in the landfill.

Works great and easy to use
Color: Black
I feel like I’ve finally found a decent milk frother! I’ve gone through (or returned) several models over the last few years, but this one has a different design and hasn’t frustrated me like the others.
It has plenty of power to froth milk, foam quality is good, heating is good. I checked the temperature a few times, since a few reviews were critical of that, and it was within a degree or two of what I’d set, so I’d say it’s good!
I appreciate that it remembers the last settings so most days are a 1-click operation. But even changing the settings is easy - easier than others I’ve used while having more options.

Best addition to our coffee bar
Color: Black
BEST milk frother we've owned. It is on the larger size but worth it. I love that there are multiple temperature settings. It is easy to use and figure out. The frother spins inside of the stainless steel cup and is magnetically attached inside so it does not come off easily. We use agave for sweetener and being able to throw the cup into the dishwasher to clean off residue has been the biggest plus of this frother. Highly recommend. Worth the cost.
