good book
The Republic by the Plato, itself, is an excellent book. There are many books that have been written on Plato. One of the problem is that the average readers may find themselves struggle to understand many commentary and intrepetive books on Plato. Fortunately, Nicholas P. White does an excellent works by writing a very good intepretive summaries of the Republic that the average readers can understand. The author, also, gives the clear and concise idea of Platonic philosophy without demanding the readers to have fully understanding of Plato and his philosophy.
