Peter Kreeft as Socrates as Time-Traveler

He does a pretty good job. At worst, the book is overwhelmingly corny, and the course of the dialog hard to believe. But if you are reading the book for apologetic insights, you will be overwhelmed. Kreeft is a master articulator of the many reasons to believe in the Christian Gospel. In addition, there are a number of psychological insights in the earlier chapters where his Socrates is dissecting the pretensions of the modern mind. Overall, highly recommended, as long as you can stomach some serious lameness.
