Anyone who doesn´t come away from reading this feeling enlightened just isn´t trying. What Durant was to earlier generations, this book is to the 21st century. The organization, writing, and illustrations are all first rate. I would recommend Cottingham´s anthology of philosophy as a companion work.. And summed up by saying Excellent.
