'The Second Story of Meno' is a thought-provoking continuation of the philosophical dialogue between Socrates and Meno. In the book, instead of focusing on virtue, as in the original dialogue, the young boy, under Socrates' guidance, demonstrates that the square root of 2 cannot be expressed as a rational number. This highlights the early stages of the discovery of irrational numbers and the philosophical implications this had for Ancient Greek mathematics. The author remains unknown.
