A Brief History of World Philosophy

Different from the traditional boring way of introducing philosophers one by one, it outlines the general trend of thought in different eras and then integrates personal philosophy into it. So it's very readable.

The ideological transformation that society is facing now, etc. In terms of the discussion of characters, the discussion of philosophers in the non-classical sense is much better than the discussion of orthodox philosophers.
