Perfect for Degree standard Philosophy

I found this book to be most helpful in revising for my exams. It is relevant to every level of my degree and has helped me immensely. There are short, excellently structured and well-written chapters on many major philosophers, beginning with the Presocratics working right through to the twentieth century. Each philosopher is dealt with in 'easy-to-chew' segments and although they are afforded only 15 or 20 pages each, there is enough there to provide a good introduction to the philosopher's thoughts. I can't praise this book enough. My only regret is that it took me so long to find! I have to give a big 'Well Done!' to the authors of this book.
