O Livro da Filosofia

The book aims to make philosophy accessible, but I wonder what the author’s process was for balancing simplicity with depth. Did they struggle to keep it engaging without oversimplifying?

The selection of philosophers seemed curated — I’m curious whether the author wanted to emphasize specific ideas or periods, and how that choice influences our understanding of philosophy as a whole.

I found the explanations clear, but I wonder if it works better as a first read or if it might leave newcomers wanting more depth on certain topics.
