Presents an imagined account of conversation between Plato and Philalethes "A Modern Young Man". In the first part, political and social institutions are considered and property, forms of government, socialism, the control of population, war and education, are discussed. The second part examines the idea of real Goods including the concepts of truth, art and love. In this work, the author sees Plato reaffirming his belief that real Goods come from some higher world, which it is the destiny of the spirits to pursue.

Ellen Key's "The right of motherhood," Havelock Ellis' "Changing status of women," and Lester Ward's "Women in history," are among the essays included in this compilation of writings on the woman question.
