A good, simple little dictionary

Don't expect a tome if you buy this book - my edition is only 57 pages. But it's all it promises to be: a good, simple dictionary of common philosophical terms. It never gets in-depth or gives much background information; each definition is but a sentence or a paragraph. But for those who are unfamiliar with philosophy and want to better understand the terms they come across as they read, this inexpensive little dictionary will do the trick.
