informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

This is a helpful book for anyone who wants to know about the original Socratic method. Socrates never set out a system of rule to follow but these have been derived from his discussions (or rather Plato). Farnsworth does not focus on these texts but distills the method and presents it in an accessible way. Some texts are discussed, but they are used as examples. 

Farnsworth also makes connections to our modern day and age and how to use the Socratic method (and when not to use it).
