Here's a lively, not-so-reverent crash course through the great philosophical traditions, schools, concepts, and thinkers.

I've been a casual reader of philosophy since my dad gave me a copy of "Thales to Dewey" when I was a senior in high school. I mention this only because I'm not sure if the jokes were funnier to me because I was familiar with most of the philosophical points they were illustrating. Either way, one isn't going to walk away from this book knowing a great deal about philosophy. But it might take the scary/snobby edge off of the subject and allow one to more comfortably take up reading a good philosophy book. ( )
A wonderful, brief, summary and overview of philosophy through the usage of jokes. Written well, both with the jokes for its humor and how it pertains and explains philosophy, from the beginning up until the modern era. ( )
