Books by James A. Colaiaco

In this exemplary work of scholarly synthesis the author traces the course of events from the emergence of Martin Luther King, Jr. He also provides the first in-depth analysis of King's famous Letter from Birmingham Jail - a manifesto of the American civil rights movement and an eloquent defence of non-violent protest.

As a companion to Plato's "Apology and Crito" this book provides historical and cultural context for our understanding of the trial of Socrates. Through discussion of important elements, the book aims to illuminate the complexity and significance of the trial.
