The Platonic Quest by E.J. Urwick is a path-breaking interpretation of Plato's Republic that weaves together Socratic-Platonic teachings and classical Indian concepts. Urwick portrays the social structure of the Republic as a holistic vision. Breaking the scholastic interpretations of earlier philologists and later positivists, giving full measure to the profound and puzzling themes of the Republic, Urwick also shows the coherence of the dialogue as a living testament to the human potential for spiritual wisdom. By integrating elements from humanity's ancient heritage, he restores depth and meaning to the Platonic quest while intimating its promise for the future. The book is enriched by an introductory chapter on the Platonic dialectic and an epilogue on anamnesis by Professor Raghavan Iyer.

The Golden Verses constitute the oldest extant Pythagorean teaching. Delivered by Pythagoras (6th century B.C.E.) and codified by his disciples, they convey the essential core of the exemplary way of life he initiated at Crotona. Hierocles composed his commentary on the Golden Verses at some time between 415 C.E. and 450 while he occupied the successor's chair of the Alexandrian Academy, the direct offshoot of the Platonic Academy in Athens. The translation of the commentary included here is adapted from that of N. Rowe. The text and the commentary are prefaced by an illuminating essay on "Pythagoras and His School" by Raghavan Iyer, President of The Pythagorean Sangha.
