Critiques
Arturo Macias
The book is well read. It is a set of biographies of the Greek philosophers, slightly too focused on life and perhaps weak on the description of the doctrines. Fenelon was a catholic priest, but he is balanced (his treatment of Epicurus is extremely sympathetic)
Alven
So easy to listen and learn while busy with other activities.
very fun!
