“PhilosophersNotes are the answer to a question that I've been asking myself a lot lately: How do I find the time to read all of the books that I want to read and still live a productive life? Think of these six page gems as movie trailers in the world of inspiring books, except that all of them are going to grab you. Not only because the books that Brian picks are the best of the best, but because of his amazing ability to extract the big ideas of each book and break them down into powerful, efficient, fun to read summaries. The ability to instantly apply this wisdom to my life coupled with the knowledge that makes it easy for me to decide what book I want to dive deeper into next makes PhilosophersNotes a priceless resource in my life.”
“Thanks for all the good mind candy! This will be a vast improvement over listening to the news during my morning and afternoon commute! I was a philosophy major in undergrad and am LOVING the notes! Takes me back to my roots! Cheers,”
