The Republic

by Plato

One of the most influential works of philosophy ever written. Plato explores justice, the ideal state, and the nature of reality through Socratic dialogue.

Geek’s cut

The kind of book that silently rewires your background processes. You close it and suddenly everyday decisions feel like miniature thought experiments.

Deeper dive

Plato's masterpiece that examines justice, the ideal state, and the philosopher-king. Through the allegory of the cave and other powerful metaphors, Plato explores fundamental questions about knowledge, reality, and the good life.
