  • Plato's Moral Psychology. Intellectualism, the Divided Soul, and the Desire for Good. Oxford University Press, 2017. 242p. Hardback. Rachana Kamtekar has already won a niche for herself through a series of articles on Plato that are not only ingenious and original (as is now de rigueur, and often enough achieved), but also genuinely perceptive. This, her first book, pursues a seminal idea through a plurality of Platonic dialogues. An introduction helpfully highlights what is central and salient, and outlines what is to come; later resumes keep the reader on track. The result should enhance anyone's appreciation and enjoyment of these familiar yet elusive texts. A. W.
