Conversations Across Time: Philosophers Encounter the Modern World

What if Socrates debated a tech executive? What would Nietzsche make of social media? How might the Buddha respond to our obsession with productivity?

In this thought-provoking work of fiction, classic philosophers step out of the history books and into the 21st century to grapple with the very essence of our contemporary world. Through lively dialogues and engaging scenarios, "Conversations Across Time" explores the enduring relevance of ancient wisdom in navigating modern challenges.

Witness Socrates engage in his famous questioning with a smartphone user, Confucius reflect on the role of respect in a modern classroom, and Simone de Beauvoir analyze gender roles in the digital age.

This book invites you to eavesdrop on imagined conversations that are both insightful and surprising. It's a philosophical journey that challenges us to examine our values, our technologies, and our very humanity.
