About this audiobook

Socrates stands before a jury of 501 Athenians, defending his life and his mission to question the wisdom of the powerful. He refuses to use emotional manipulation, instead using logic to prove that he has been a benefactor to the city by waking it from its stupor. The text portrays a man who fears wickedness more than death, famously claiming that a good man cannot be harmed by a bad one. It is a stirring testament to intellectual integrity and moral courage.
