Plato recorded the final days of his mentor, Socrates, who was tried and condemned in Athens in 399 B.C. on trumped-up charges of being a heretic and corrupter of the young. This collection comprises 4 books: Euthyphro, in which Socrates engages Euthyphro in a debate on the steps of the courthouse where he is to stand trial, The Apology, in which Socrates argues on his own behalf, Crito, in which Socrates's friends and supporters visit him in prison and urge him to recant, and Phaedo, in which there is a debate on the destination of the soul, and, eventually, the philosopher's end.

Socrates is is the best person who ever lived. second, I have a learning disability so when I read I like to hear the words are written in the book for me. therefore, the audio does not fit the book at all, the story that was said here just not the match the book at all. Finally, that is why I gave one star all around. but the story is great

Don't get me wrong. Socrates oh Socrates
