In this engaging edition of Plato's works, readers are drawn into the riveting trial of Socrates, a philosopher on a mission to inspire thoughtful discourse among the Athenian youth. With sharp wit and fearless logic, he confronts accusations of corrupting the young, provoking a deeper understanding of virtue and justice.

Following the trial, the dialogue shifts to "Crito," where Socrates faces the dilemma of escaping execution or remaining true to his principles. Through these discussions, readers are invited to ponder the weight of morality, the justice of laws, and the courageous pursuit of wisdom—even when it leads to one’s own demise. It's a thought-provoking exploration of life’s most pressing questions.
