No mortal man is wiser than Socrates, who, on his daily walks through Athens, talks to all the people he meets. “Tell us, Delphic Oracle, who is the wisest man in all of Greece?” So begins The Death of Socrates. Each book in the series features an engaging-and often funny-story that presents basic tenets of philosophical thought alongside vibrant color illustrations.
introduces children-and curious grown-ups-to the lives and work of famous philosophers, from Descartes to Socrates, Einstein, Marx, and Wittgenstein. It should come as no surprise, then, that children make excellent philosophers! Naturally inquisitive, pint-size scholars need little prompting before being willing to consider life’s “big questions,” however strange or impractical. At its most basic, philosophy is about learning how to think about the world around us.
