Pierre Grimes, PhD, is a specialist in classical Greek philosophy. He is the founder of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association. He is also founder of the Noetic Society in the Los Angeles area. He is author of Philosophical Midwifery: A New Paradigm for Understanding Human Problems, Socrates and Jesus: A Dialogue in Heaven, and Unblocking: Removing Blocks to Understanding. He is also a decorated veteran of the second world war.
Here he distinguishes between the practice of philosophical dialogue exemplified by Plato as opposed to that of Socrates. He emphasizes the importance of the Self in Plato’s philosophy — and how this unfolds through the different philosophical dialogues. He demonstrates how the dialogue process can bring people into a greater understanding of the Self as well as false notions of the Self.

Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.
