520    "This book has the form of a text commentary on one of 
       Plato's so-called Socratic dialogues, the Charmides. After
       a comprehensive introduction, the commentary proceeds 
       closely following Plato's text, quoting sections of the 
       Charmides in translation, and discussing in detail the 
       passages quoted. The primary task of the analysis is to 
       track the argument, from the early definitions of 
       sôphrosynê (temperance) suggested by Charmides to the 
       deeply puzzling question whether a kind of self-knowledge 
       identified by Critias as 'science of science' is possible 
       or, conceding that it is, whether the greatly beneficial 
       virtue of sôphrosynê is the same thing as the 'science of 
       science. In parallel to the argument, the commentary also 
       pursues historical and literary themes, notably the 
       development of the characters of Charmides and Critias and
       the utilisation of the historical subtext by Plato for 
       dramatic and philosophical purposes. The commentary tries 
       to pull together the different strands of the dialogue, 
       show how they evolve, and argue that they form an 
       attractive and coherent whole. The book has twelve 
       chapters, plus an Appendix containing a new translation of
       the dialogue, a bibliography, and indices"--|cProvided by
