Worst reading of an audiobook ever.

Interesting classic text, almost destroyed by the reader, who sounds as if he has wandered in from a GPS app.

Most Important of All Philosophy Books

Pythagoras is the first of all Philosophers, unless we count Hermes Trismegistus, about which little is known outside of the Emerald Tablets (please research these). Pythagoras is the first of the Greek line of philosopher-saints, which include Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. His Hermetic school is a landmark in spiritual and ethical progress, as well as in the worlds of the logic and society and politics. It is advised to begin your study of philosophy or spirituality with Hermes and Pythagoras.
