The British mathematician and metaphysician Alfred North Whitehead argued that European philosophy is "a series of footnotes to Plato."

One such riddle is worth discussing in more detail: the profound connection between contemplation and action, pure thought and practical life. Is it possible to learn to think? What motivates us to embark on the path of philosophical inquiry? And why is Plato particularly relevant today?
