Teach Yourself Philosophy

Rating:
Summary: Impressive
Review: Mel Thompson's book Philosophy is one of the best books on the subject I have read. He approaches the matter in a writing style that is way far from the pompous, rigid, holier-than-thou method some writers use. His writing is lucid, captivating, fun and educational (two words which are rarely found together)...He discusses concisely yet sufficiently and thoroughly about philosophic concepts and highlights the most important parts of each concept and elucidates them masterfully. This book will appeal to anyone from the member of the philosophical clerisy to the ordinary layperson. A truly interesting read.
