Book is falling apart
Pages fall out of the binding as I turn pages; I’m not spreading the book apart like a troglodyte either.

This edition cuts corners, too easily mistaken for Hackett version
Hackett's collection (tr. Grube) is the one you probably want. This recent knock-off picks off *exactly* the same name, down to the list of 5 dialogues.ALAS, this poor excuse for a "new edition" has (1) archaic-sounding Jowett translation, (2) low production quality (newsprint, terrible for annotation), (3) no introduction or explanatory notes, and (4) no Stephanus numbering (usually printed in the margin) that is vital for cross-reference to any other edition or to how the work gets cited by others. Punchline: (5) it does not even name a publisher. So it can't be properly cited. Nobody is standing behind this product, but someone is profiting nonetheless. Steer clear!

Who am I to argue with Plato
I don't know the ancient tongue but food for the brain. No wonder they call him a 'Classic'. To have been there to listen in person would have been a special treat.
