A review by kahell
The Philosophy Book: Big Ideas Simply Explained by Marcus Weeks, Douglas Burnham, Clive Hill, Will Buckingham, John Marenbon, Peter J. King

3.0

Insightful and organized but not exhaustive. If you know nothing about philosophy it can be a good introduction, though it can also get overwhelming because of the length and the number of philosophers covered. If you know a little bit it can get annoying because it tends to cherry pick a philosopher's ideas on a single subject that works best for the timeline. For example, my biggest irk was how it focused on Hobbes and Locke's views on epistemology instead of their political philosophy which is arguably more influential. Not the best resource but if you just want an overview of what types of philosophies are out there then go for it.

Sharing my notes (opens on Notion) if anyone needs a refresher.
