Resumen del Editor

In 2019, Peter Kreeft published Socrates' Children, a four-volume series on the 100 greatest philosophers of all time, spanning from ancient Greece to contemporary Germany. But he made a terrible mistake: He somehow left out women, and with this, he overlooked the greatest mind of them all.

He forgot her—a mysterious housewife from a desert village—because he had forgotten what "philosophy" means. "Philosophy is not the cultivation of cleverness," Kreeft explains, "or the sophistications of scholarship, or the analysis of analysis, or the refutation of refutations, or the deconstruction of deconstructions." No, "philosophy is a romance, a love affair—the love of wisdom."

This book is a one-of-a-kind study on Mary of Nazareth, the mother of Jesus. If Jesus Christ is wisdom incarnate, and if Mary loved Him more than anyone else ever did, then it holds that Mary is the greatest philosopher, the greatest wisdom-lover. With precision and humor, Kreeft not only unpacks the thought and spirit of Mary as we know her through Scripture and Church doctrine, but offers a heartfelt crash course in the basics of philosophy—methodology, epistemology, logic, metaphysics, cosmology, ethics, politics, aesthetics, and more—all through the lens of the Mother of God.

Fans of Kreeft will find here another fine example of his characteristic freshness, creativity, depth, and clarity. But above all, those who are curious about the mother of Jesus, whether they are new to Christian faith or simply hoping to discover it anew, will likely find themselves swept up in the tide of Mary's wise love for God.

Excellent if a little academic but if you stick with it this book definitely delivers

Surprising and Fascinating

I have been a fan of Peter Kreeft for years, so I decided to take a chance on this without even knowing who he considered to be "The "Greatest Philosopher Who Ever Lived". His choice was very surprising, but very well explained and justified. I learned quite a bit, including some subtleties of Catholic theology. This is a book that any Catholic or open-minded Protestant should enjoy.

Sorry, not for me

This is the first ever Audible returned title for me.
I know this was philosophy, but it went on and on about how many ways one can "be". It seemed like there was so much historical and spiritual speculation that was expounded upon just to make more pages.

This seemed to be a book for non-believers to hopefully become a believer.
The author seemed intelligent and the narration was good.
Thank you.
