The twenty-one commissioned articles in \u003cem\u003eThe Oxford Handbook of Plato\u003c\/em\u003e provide in-depth and up-to-date discussions of a variety of topics and dialogues. The result is a useful state-of-the-art reference to the man many consider the most important philosophical thinker in history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach article is an original contribution from a leading scholar, and they all serve several functions at once: they survey the lay of the land; express and develop the authors' own views; and situate those views within a range of alternatives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis \u003cem\u003eHandbook \u003c\/em\u003econtains chapters on metaphysics, epistemology, love, language, ethics, politics, art and education.
