The last couple.of chapters got a little too capitalist for my taste but overall it was a really pleasant read. Dont know enough about the philosophers mentioned to guage how accurate their 'chapters' are to their work. Found it engaging and simple enough, plan to buy it to share with my kids someday.

This book is a little gem which kept me entertained as much as it would the target audience.
As a teacher something I'm always trying to encourage in students is to question, to query and to think about things ; this book is a ready made resource for this, with a variety of topics covered so the young person reading it is bound to find something to pique their interest. I used some of the questions as starting points for small discussions and essays with one of my classes.
The layout is very user friendly, the illustrations are wonderful and overall it is a very readable, accessible book.
