Any edition of Cicero's De Officiis can do for references, but as I found it useful to use Walter Millar's English translation for readers not familiar with Latin, I refer to the Loeb edition of Cambridge Mass./London, Harvard University Press 1968. Some comments of M. Testard from the Belles Lettres edition (Paris 1970 and 1974) have been referred to.
