Socrates in the City: Conversations on Life, God, and Other Small Topics

[Presented by Eric Metaxas and the contributing authors] Following the extraordinary success of the New York Times bestseller Bonhoeffer, Eric Metaxas' latest book ''Socrates in the City'' offers inspirational and intellectually rigorous thoughts about the great questions surrounding us all today. The Greek philosopher Socrates famously said that ''the unexamined life is not worth living.'' Taking this as a starting point, Eric Metaxas founded a speaking series that encouraged busy and successful professionals to attend forums and think actively about the bigger questions in life; thus Socrates in the City: Conversations on ''Life, God, and Other Small Topics'' was born. This book is for the seeker in all of us, the collector of wisdom, and the person who asks, ''What if?'' Within this collection of original essays that were first given to standing-room-only crowds in New York City are serious thinkers taking on Life, God, Evil, Redemption, and other small topics.
