I found The Philosopher's Handbook: Essential Readings from Plato to Kant for a decent price at a giant chain bookstore. I'd been looking for some way to solidify the happenstance knowledge I have of some philosophers--mostly through the theoretical readings I did for grad school.
This book looks to have some of the major philosophers and excerpts from their works arranged in a way that I like. One of my colleagues at work, a very well-read guy who's quite encouraging and insightful, suggested I do some background research on each philosopher before jumping into the primary stuff. I'll start researching Plato straightaway, and try to gather my thoughts here. Meanwhile here's some info on the book.
