Another excellent reference book by DTV (Deutscher Taschenbuch Verlag), DTV-Atlas zur Philosophie includes not only texts and analyses of world philosophy from ancient India to the late 20th century, for those visually inclined, there are also a plethora of full colour illustrations and diagrams presented. Personally, I find many of the graphs, diagrams and flow charts rather confusing (I just don't think in pictures, I think in letters and words), but they are a wonderful additional show more learning tool for those individuals who think concretely and require formulae and graphs to learn.
Dense, academic and informative (and all in a handy, lightweight paperback), the only drawback is that, much like most DTV atlases, the font size of the text is again rather miniscule (I actually read parts of the book with a magnifying glass). However, I do realise that if the font size were much bigger, this book would likely not have been able to be published in such a handy, lightweight format, thus the tiny font is but a minor inconvenience. Recommended for students and anyone interested in philosophy (but with the caveat that fluency in the German language is assumed and necessary). show less

Dieses Buch sollte jeder gelessen haben der sich zum ersten mal in seinem Leben mit dem Fach der Phlosophie beschäftigt. Ich selber benutze dieses Buch immer dann wenn ich kurz und bündigt mich über eine Philosophische Frage informieren möchte. Ich denke man sollte zwei Büchern seinen Kindern schenken, eines davon ist dieses Buch.
Dieses Buch liefert eine gute Zusammenfassung der Philosophie in Form eines Lexikons. Die Texte in diesem Buch werden nach Themen geordnet und die Themen selber stehen in ihrer Zeitlichen Abfolge, so dass man die Entwiklung der Philosophie nach vol ziehen kann.
