Philosophy Books

Introduction

There are many great philosophy books available to choose from if you’d like to learn more about the subject. On this page, I’ve listed some that have been helpful to me for learning the basics and structure of the field of study. I have also provided a list of recommended books for each philosopher. Some of the famous philosophy books, written by the philosophers themselves, are now even available in ebook format. As you read through the topics on my site, I encourage you to make notes and select books to further pursue your interests. I hope this is helpful, and enjoy!
