I wish these had a PDF-like layout rather than the ebook style. The charts and graphics don't quite translate well

Quote from Lukkie :

Yes, I have read the book and it gives a pretty good cursory look of major philosophical movements/concepts form ancient Greece, Eastern philosophy up to modern times such as existentialism and onward. I would recommend it, it was also just in general a fun read before bed. Each philosopher has a page or 2 dedicated to them so you can get a decent amount of summarized info in short amount of time.
