"This is a very good book. It is provocative and controversial, but it advances our understanding of Plato's metaphysics. Silverman tells a complicated story well. The book is clear, and provides both overviews and summaries that help a reader work through the intricate arguments. One of its real strengths is in treating Plato as a working philosopher who has important and interesting things to say about metaphysics. The reader is deeply engaged as a philosophical comrade-in-arms working through tough problems along with Silverman, and Plato."--Patricia Curd, Purdue UniversitySilverman, Allan is the author of 'Dialectic of Essence A Study of Plato's Metaphysics' with ISBN 9780691091792 and ISBN 069109179X.
