Examined Lives: From Socrates to Nietzsche by James Miller

1.0

As Tommy Wiseau eloquently puts in his film The Room: "Get out, get out, get out of my life!" This attempt to distill philosophy through the biographies of its practitioners quickly devolved into homework, slate-gray and uninteresting. I hoped it would be an introduction to these men's (all of them male, of course) ideas, but I was sadly disappointed. Bleh. On to the next.
