Bought this book to read in preparation for the GAMSAT. Would 10/10 recommend if preparing for a similar exam or for those who would like to develop their dinner party conversation topics

Enjoying this read, had it a day and more than half way through. Very informative, well written and put together. Can be a little bias towards the USA but otherwise a great book, I'd recommend to anyone especially Philosophy students
