Re: philosophy books

I expect I'm getting in first in what will be a large number of recommendations! Simon Blackburn at Cambridge has written a few 'pop-philosophical' books which are good: "Being Good" and "Truth" are the two that spring to mind, but there might be others. I think that Russell's "A History of Western Philosophy" might be popular as well: I have it just to impress people with! M.

Hello.

A friend of mine has managed to score a job in a bookshop and has been put in charge of the philosophy section. He has two shelves to fill and asked me for recommendations. The trouble is that I don't really know of many books that are suitable for the mass market (I know that they are out there, its just that I don't read them), so I've been doing a little bit of poking about. I wonder if you lot have any suggestions?
