The Seekers

The Seekers was a bear to get through. This book takes a sweeping ride through the ages describing the times and views of great wisdom seekers and philosophers, including the ancient Greeks, Martin Luther, Hegel, and many more. Although I learned new information about the ancient Greek philosophers Socrates, Plato and Aristotle that will be useful for the Jeopardy test someday, I had to bail after the chapter on Karl Marx about 2/3 of the way through. Don't tackle this one unless you have a heart for philosophy, or a bad bout of insomnia!
