    Fresh and Easy for a fresher

    Certainly a gem for aspirants. Not only it carefully mentions most works of philosophers, but also gives short biographical glimpse of their lives. Quite an engaging, fuller appetizer; Best one can start with.

    Wonderful

    The book is a good one but there is no details about the Indian or Chinese philosophy (there are some references though). It is the European philosophy which is explained. Anyways it is good enough to keep you engaged long enough to finish it.

    Nice product

    A best book to begin with to acquaint with philosophy. The author has imbued the whole work with passion, clarity and brevity. The nuances of each philosophical idea is explained without turning pedantic and the striking vein of agility in his style provides a colorful read.

Will Durant has definitely succeeded in his attempt to humanize knowledge. It fills us with ever lighting wisdom and illuminates us. As Goethe rightly said "He who cannot draw on three thousand years is living from hand to m...

    A journey through philosophers

    Though the physical quality of the book I received was poor ,I ceased to worry about it when I began reading this amazing book.This is, of course, a must-read book for those who need an introduction to philosophy and history of human thoughts.The philosophers are presented in a chronological manner, starting from greeks, and explains various historical details and contexts along with their thoughts.Each story starts with the description of philosophers, their ideas and a short note on critic...
