zhelana's review against another edition

This book was really dense, and not very interesting at all. It talks about a different philosopher in each chapter, but most of them believe pretty much the same things. It is ultimately not usable for what I want because it doesn't talk at all about what rabbis believed or people believed. It's just a few heads in universities. And all of the content is so similar it's like reading and rereading the thing over and over again. It probably would have been better organized by topic with a few different disagreements over each topic, rather than organized by philosopher.
