Review: Great intro - This was a great intro to philosophy. It briefly describes influential events and people that shape our world and history of philosophy to help you decide who you want to research more.
Review: Great book for novices - The book is beautiful and very clear. Not too deep, but that is up to you to get further information on topics that you may get interest (and you get a wid range of topics in this book). In my opinion, the book is aimed to novices with an interest in philosophy. Not aimed to experts.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book for novices

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mr. Bassham earned PhD at the University of Notre Dame
*by B***G on January 18, 2023*

From my experience the most important thing about philosophy is: The understanding that everything flows from the assumptions we make at the beginning of the argument and/or discussion. Everything flows from the assumptions one makes at the beginning. The introduction in the book by Mr. Bassham is very good. Please be aware that Mr. Bassham has included two entries for Alvin Plantinga, page 462- "1974-Essentialism," and page 490- "1984 Revival of Christian Philosophy." "Mr. Plantinga From 1963 to 1982, Plantinga taught at Calvin University before accepting an appointment as the John A. O'Brien Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame.[3] He later returned to Calvin University to become the inaugural holder of the Jellema Chair in Philosophy.[4]" (Wikipedia).
