Product Description:
What would happen if Socrates returned to the present and showed up on the college campus of Desperate State University? What would he think about the modern world? This imaginative book by Peter Kreeft invites you to sit in on conversations that Socrates has with Peter Pragma and Felicia Flake. Each character has six short Socratic dialogues examining contemporary values like success, power, and pleasure throughtopics such as money, God, sex, government, music, and objective truth. This page-turner poses simple, yet perplexing philosophy within each conversation that will stimulate ethical and moral reflection. Kreeft's humor is a little corny, but his presentation of questions and conclusions is mind-opening and spirit-challenging. I thoroughly enjoyed this thought-provoking book. My only criticism is that the dialogues contain a lot of fluff before getting to the "meat." I suppose it would take me a while to reach a conclusion too if I was being questioned by one of the greatest thinkers of all time! Hopefully the wisdom you obtain from this book will help you better discern what the best things in life actually are. 190 pgs, pb. elise
