How do you review an encyclopedia? Well, here's my crack at it.
The Concise Encyclopedia of Western Philosophy and Philosophers is shorter than I thought it would be, but still manages to work as a coffee table book. It covers Western Philosophy and Philosophers as stated on the cover. The entries are alphabetical, so it's better to look up information rather than read through the entire volume. I found the book at the library, and it has all of the entries I thought it would have.
Alongside those entries, the book has photographs and other images to demonstrate who is important. The book smells musty due to age. It is the 1960 edition, after all. I enjoyed the book. Thanks for reading my review, and see you next time.
