In his celebrated masterpiece, Symposium, Plato imagines a high-society dinner-party in Athens in 416 BC. The guests--including the comic poet Aristophanes and Plato's mentor Socrates-each deliver a short speech in praise of love. The sequence of dazzling speeches culminates in Socrates' famous account of the views of Diotima, a prophetess who taught him that love is our means of trying to attain goodness, and a brilliant sketch of Socrates himself by a drunken Alcibiades, the most popular and notorious Athenian of the time. Engaging the reader on every page, this new translation conveys the power, humor, and pathos of Plato's creation and is complemented by full explanatory notes and an illuminating introduction.

The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine is the definitive reference work for every cardiology trainee, general cardiologist, and specialist cardiologist as they develop their core knowledge of the subject. Based on the Core Curriculum of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), this resource contains much of the evidence base of the subject, and reflects ESC guidelines, Task Force reports and scientific statements, which guide current practice. The second edition also features significant new chapters on specific context-based heart disease. The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine comprises 38 sections flowing from the clinical presentation of the patient and initial investigations, through comprehensive descriptions of disease processes and pathophysiological states, and finally to the complex interrelationship between the heart and the mind. Each section begins with a summary of the chapter featuring key learning points, and ends with personal reflections from the authors about the standing of their subject and its likely development during the next half decade. Such comprehensive coverage of the subject area makes The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine the must-have, must-use resource for everyone currently working in the field. The online version of The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine contains the full text of the print edition (which can be browsed by the contents list, the index, or searched), links from references in the text to external sources (via PubMed, ISI, and CrossRef), and all figures and illustrations from the print edition, downloadable into PowerPoint.
