The Dream of Reason: A History of Philosophy from the Greeks to the Renaissance
by Anthony Gottlieb
Buy on AmazonI could not put it down. It hit me at some point that I was at the intersection of readability and scholarship. Clearly the value of this book lies beyond its readability: Gottlieb is both a philosopher and a journalist (in the good sense), not a journalist who writes about philosophy. He investigates and provides a fresh look at the material.
