A brilliant translation that gives new life to a classic. The introduction alone is worth the price of the text. Waterfield brings grace and style to the Symposium, brushing away the dust that pollutes the inferior, dead translations of the past. --William McTaggart, Westminster College
The translation is quite good, remaining faithful to the original while flowing smoothly for the modern reader. --Ancient Philosophy
Waterfield's translation is scholarly, yet in touch with the ZEITGEIST. More accessible than its predecessors, students will benefit from the refreshingly new tone of the introduction and translation. The notes and the index of names also add a fresh level of usefulness and a measure of
charm. --Elf S. Raymond, Sarah Lawrence College
Great. Superb notes. Informative but not pedantic. --Professor John R. Lenz, Drew University
[The] introductory material is lucid and well-chosen. --Bryn Mawr Classical Review
I like full Intro., marginal ref. numbers, excellent notes, size, and comfortable binding. --Madonna R. Adams, Pace University
Waterfield's editions in the World's Classics series are superlative. Lucidly translated, his notes of explanation are, additionally, useful both to novice and to scholar. --Verna V. Gehring, Hood College
