Descendants of Socrates

Philosophy is a fascinating adventure, as Karl Jaspers defines it in his book "Introduction to Philosophy." It is a unique form of dialogue that began in ancient Greece nearly 2,500 years ago, where philosophers, driven by some experience or feeling that stirred their curiosity, interest, and passion, began to ask questions, questions that began with "Why?" They wanted answers to their questions; that is, they wanted to explain why things are the way they are. Philosophers are always captivated by questioning and searching for answers.
