Think: A Compelling Introduction to Philosophy by Simon Blackburn

2.0

An informative read, however, as others have noted, not a very enjoyable one. I think I was expecting this book to be what Nagel's "What does it all mean" is (so far so good!); Informative/curiosity-stimulating/enjoyable, concise, and good for people who are easily overwhelmed by philosophy's vast and complexly intertwined history. Check out Nagel's short introduction if Blackburn bums you out.
