More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
The most illustrious men and women of the past would have much to teach us if only, by some miracle of time travel, we could borrow an hour or so of their time - and get them to tell us just what it was that really mattered to them, what really made a difference in their lives, and what their strongest beliefs were. The imaginative and exciting new "Coffee with..." series from DBP enables us to do just that. A relaxed chat with Ernest Hemingway, Marilyn Monroe, or Plato, turns out to be highly informative and highly enjoyable ...and we can even ask questions. If only all great men and women were so generous with their time!

Small little book which project you in a virtual everyday scenario in which two people share deep and thoughtful conversation about the most high level topic of life. Plato will be the interviewee while the author will question him to find a deep answer.

Small but enjoyable dialogues.
29 May 2009
Format:Hardcover
This literal and physically small book is a great and approachable introduction to the philosopher. I'm glad it wasn't titled 'Coffees with' because certainly one can finish it over a taller cup. The book is written in a series of dialogues with the philosopher as if someone with modern day queries was able to have the man alive and accounting for his writings. Considering the nature of Plato's writings this dialgue nature of discovery seems quite appropriate. Fun, brisk and not without a sense of humor, you could do worse for an introduction to the greater, expansive lexicon...just don't expect this to keep you company long.
