This book explains in clear language with appropriate scholarly attention to detail how and why Socrates continues to be a foundational figure in western philosophy, and especially in ethics and epistemology. It argues that the craft-model of knowledge offers a viable and potent theoretical basis for practical and ethical self-improvement.
