Acerca de esta escucha

Just a century after it had begun, philosophy entered its greatest age with the appearance of Socrates, who spent so much of his time talking about philosophy on the streets of Athens that he never got around to writing anything down. His method of aggressive questioning, called dialectic, was the forerunner of logic; he used it to cut through the twaddle of his adversaries and arrive at the truth. Rather than questioning the world, he believed, we would be better off questioning ourselves. Socrates placed philosophy on the sound basis of reason. He saw the world as not accessible to our senses, only to thought. Finally, charged with impiety and the corruption of youth, he was tried and sentenced to death, and ended his life by drinking the judicial hemlock.

In Socrates in 90 Minutes, Paul Strathern offers a concise, expert account of Socrates' life and ideas, and explains their influence on man's struggle to understand his existence in the world. The book also includes selections from Socrates' work, a brief list of suggested readings for those who wish to delve deeper, and chronologies that place Socrates within his own age and in the broader scheme of philosophy.

Engaging if your interested in the subject, expands into historical context and both predecessors and contemporaries. What’s true for this “in 90 min” is true of the series. For anyone home schooling, or for students working on a report this is 90 min well spent.

Excellent series

It was too short. I would have preferred it to be much much longer. But it was enough.

It's History, How may one not love it?

If you are looking for a decent, overview of Socrates this is pretty good. I expected a factu account. The facts are interspersed with the author’s opinions about various periods and philosophical and religious viewpoints.

Good Overview.

Thought Socrates didn’t write anything, yet there is so much to learn from him. Thank to the author and narrator! I’m looking forward to listening to more….

Learn more about Socrates!

For me, I just wanted to learn a little and this does just that. Since these are included with my membership, I have listened to a lot of them. It is a very easy way to learn a little without going into an entire college course or textbook.

CLIFF NOTES!!!

I admittedly know very little of this subject, hence my interest in a 90 min introduction. So I am taking all the contained information as fact, which it may be, but I wish time had been spent on the Author and why they should be considered an expert on the subject.

Great Review of an introduction into the teachings and studies of Socrates . I recommend this book line that includes Plato and Aristotle as well.
I listed in the order Socrates, Plato then Aristotle although three different works it is a great overview of the great philosophers.

Great Review
