A good introduction to philosophy and the great philosophers for young people, with a short biographical note, and an analysis of how they approached the major issues of life. Chapter headings include Unpopularity, Not Having Enough Money, Frustration, Inadequacy, Broken Heart and Difficulties.The book is well annotated and lavishly illustrated. Partly a review of philosophy from Socrates to Nietzsche, and partly a self-help book.
