This book gives a very brief overview of a lot of topics. I believe the authors aim is to provoke your philosophical thoughts on these topics as philosophers believe in teaching people how to think for themselves and to develop critical thinking skills and I do believe in parts this is successful.

If you’re looking for an introduction to philosophy as a whole this could be a good starting point for you as it covers a wide range of topics in a way that will get you wanting to know more about each topic.

From someone who has a philosophy degree, I enjoyed the way this booked was presented. I enjoyed the very accessible style of writing the author had and if I put myself in the shoes of someone who knows nothing on philosophy I believe I would enjoy it.

Some topics have more substance to them than others and some introduce arguments that are used within those areas of philosophy. I just really wanted more. I felt like each chapter was slightly too short for me to really invest in the questions. But that could be because I’m used to reading the likes of Kant who can really go into detail about epistemology and ethics.
