Throughout this book, the work of the ancients is set in the context of the most recent thinking about the nature and value of philosophy. It shows that there is much to be learnt from the ancient philosophers' views of the life of a philosopher.

For Socrates, philosophy, was the study of how to lead one's life, and for Wittgenstein, `philosophy leaves everything as it is.' Throughout this book, the work of the ancients is set in the context of the most recent thinking about the nature and value of philosophy, and the author questions how much there is to be learnt from the ancient philosophers' differing conceptions of the ideal life.
