Review of 'Apology' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
If that's indeed the apology of Socrates, then this book, though short, is very indicative of the prowess of Socrates on discourse and reason. A lot of wisdom is hidden among his words. The ending makes you wonder, or rather alter your opinion on who's the victor and who's the loser in Socrates's trial. Kudos to Plato, who's delivered us his teacher's last speech.
