I thought this was a brilliant book that gives a great introduction to philosophy. It's really well written and I felt like I was reading short stories but still learned a lot about philosophy and the lives of philosophers. Each idea is presented with a beautiful illustration, a mythical story, some questions to make you think, and then the thoughts of lots of famous philosophers on the subject. This variety makes it really interesting and you'll find yourself considering lots of questions, big and small. I found this book really engaging to read and it gave me plenty of food for thought
