Peter Kreeft decided to write “Socrates’ Children” because…

Esteemed philosophy professor Peter Kreeft decided to write Socrates' Children: An Introduction to Philosophy from the 100 Greatest Philosophers after countless people asked him the following question: 


"Could you recommend just one book that covers the whole history of philosophy that beginners can understand and even get excited about?"

So he went off and wrote Socrates' Children. But what makes this philosophy set so engaging?


  • It is practical, and personal. Philosophy is about human life and thought, so Kreeft concentrated on the ideas that make a difference to your life.

  • It is selective. It doesn't try to cover too much. 

  • It concentrates on the Big Ideas—ideas that you will find most valuable.
