This is an interesting book for anyone interested in existentialist thought (specifically that of Sartre's famous strain).

Through the mouthpiece of Socrates, Kreeft extracts some important elements of Sartre's philosophy with an attitude of criticism and exposition that is phenomenal. The two chapters on man's freedom (potency and act) are so far my favorite.

While I wouldn't necessarily recommend this work as an introduction to the thought Jean Paul Sartre, it still nonetheless draws out important distinctions that Kreeft is great at examining with the use of his fictional Socrates. I still have my problems though.
