Strauss, Leo, "On the Euthydemus," Studies in Platonic Political Philosophy, Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 1983, 67-88.

Excerpt:

From the Crito we are led to the Euthydemus by the consideration that the Euthydemus contains the only other conversation between Socrates and Kriton. The two dialogues stand indeed as opposite poles. The Euthydemus is the most bantering, not to say frivolous and farcical dialogue while the Crito is the most solemn one: the Crito is the only dialogue in which there occurs almost a theophany.
