The Story of Philosophy: The Lives and Opinions of the Greater Philosophers by Will Durant

5.0

A brief but clear depiction of selected western philosophers and their most notable theories. One of the first books that helped me understand the diverse complexity of thought and subjects covered throughout philosophy from 500 b.c. or so to 1920 in the Western world. I definitely reccomend to anyone new to philosophy looking for a begginer's reasonably comprehensive guide.
