(Review)

I had ambivalent feeling reading Paul Johnson's book on Socrates.

On the one hand I am very happy to read about my favorite philosopher, and I agree completely with the title of the book, Socrates is really a man for our times. I add it to him that his timeliness never ceased. His enormous effect was permanent. Every age Socrates was a role model of a moral and clear life, he was an ideal of consistent free thinking.

Paul Johnson’s bias feeling for Socrates would be acceptable for me if he would not have infallible statement in relation to the philosopher and the age of Socrates.
