You could forego a massive investment of time and money by reading this survey of giants in western philosophy.
If you've already spent more hours than you care to admit in university lecture halls, then replace those underwhelming exposures with Warburton's concise and useful recaps instead.
I quite enjoyed the mini-biographies of the philosophers mentioned! Just wish we'd stop using “he or she” when “they” exists; it's shorter, still grammatically correct, and more inclusive too!
