Still an interesting point to ponder.

If you're interesting in even more interesting things to ponder pick yourself up a copy of History Western Philosophy by Bertrand Russell and/or A History of Western Philosophy by Will Durant.

Thanks, I'll certainly have a look.

Here's my recommendation:

Peter Kreeft: What Would Socrates Do?

Richard Dawkins: The Greatest Show on Earth

Jeffrey Satinover: The Quantum Brain
