"Of the dialectics and physics of Plato, they are the only exposition at once full, accurate, and popular, with which I am acquainted; being far more accurate than the French and incomparably more popular than the German treatises on these departments of the Platonic philosophy."

"By Professor Thompson's Notes we think we may say that these lectures are doubled in value. ...
