The Socrates Express: In Search of Life Lessons from Dead Philosophers by Eric Weiner
4.0
Solid book.
Great conversational tone and topical, high level view of lots of philosophers.
I would recommend reading the original source materials (the leading books from each of them). I've read most of them and I like to delve into the full teachings.
Would recommend to people who like trains too (I don't care about them, but I know there's a big Reddit community of train people), as the whole book situated around train rides.
3.9/5
