Summary
The Pedagogic Mission offers a focused pedagogic exegesis of the philosophies of Heraclitus, Parmenides, Socrates and Plato. Encrypted in their philosophical practices is a pedagogical mission which structures their manner of engagement. The linguistic style, epistemological assumptions, and metaphysical views are shown to be integral to the neophytes' pedagogical experience involving the acquisition of rational skills, an enhanced conceptual framework of understanding, and transformative effect on the subject.--Amazon.com.
