A great introduction to Socrates. Xenophon’s writing is clear, but sometimes feels a bit repetitive. Still, a worthwhile read!

An interesting glimpse into Socrates’ world. Some of the arguments felt a bit dated, but the core principles still resonate. Solid translation.

Good collection of Xenophon’s writings. The editing and footnotes helped a lot. I did not find it as engaging as Plato’s dialogues, though.
Adarsh –
Found the ‘Memoirs’ particularly insightful. It gave a grounded perspective on his teachings. Not always easy to follow, but rewarding.

Essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy. Xenophon offers a practical view of Socrates, which is great. Little dry at times.
