From skits reenacting Plato's
famous allegory of the cave to "Political Philosophy
Charades," the text takes a hands-on approach to a subject that
doesn't generally involve hands, weaving excerpts from
philosophical texts in with performance-based activities. * Analyze Plato's Allegory of the Cave as an example of an
