    Sorry for the late reply but I have only read Meno and loved it. It was an extremely fun read. It shows you the principles of Socrates' logic, the Socratic dialogue style and Socrates' and, arguably, Plato's views on virtue. A nice taster of Greek Philosophy is found in this astonishingly short and concise book. It is fairly simple too - which is a bonus if you are new to Philosophy. Give it a read, you won't be disappointed!
