I thought this might be helpful for teaching my students philosophy but after reading it I'm not convinced. Not only are some of the most important concepts not explained well, but the book also seems to be all over the place quite often and I think it would be confusing for "philosophy newbies".

Besides that, the German edition that I read is full of typos and grammatical mistakes and also features quite a few incorrectly translated phrases and sentences - quite disappointing!
