Plato

Plato ranks among the most familiar ancient philosophers, along with his teacher, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle.

In addition to writing philosophical dialogues - used to teach logic, ethics, rhetoric, religion, and mathematics as well as philosophy - he founded Athens' Academy, the Western world's first institution of higher learning.

It won't be easy to do justice to a major piece of Western history with this review. This is a captivating read and I also think the importance of Socrates cannot be overstated. I could write for a long time on him but suffice it to say that this certainly has relevance today. This account of Socrates' trial by Plato probably uses a lot of artistic licence, but it is highly evocative and you almost feel like you are there in the jury listening. A small book but could have a big impact on your life.
