Didn't cost me more than expected but has everything that I was looking for and is serving it's purpose. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars So close! But still really good. *by V***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2024* Oh man, I wish I could give it 4.5 stars because 4 is a little low but it's closer to 4 than 5. This is NOT the book that is advertised. It's not how the world thinks. It's basically how India, China, and Japan think... and a little bit of Western Philosophy. He goes into SO much detail regarding Indian, Chinese, Japanese and Middle Eastern philosophy and you can tell the author really loves those philosophies and the book serves as a great starter guide to many of their ideas. Unfortunately, I bought the book because I wanted philosophies from around the world, not just Asia. The book is approximately 30% China, 25% India, 15% Japan, 20% Western (including the US), 2% African, 2% Russia, 6% Other (including Australia)A grand total of ZERO PERCENT South America or Central America. That's so weird! 3 out of 6 habitable continents are less than 5% of the book. He mentions it somewhat (particularly in regards to Russia) that talking about how many philosophies are difficult to talk about or pin down but... I would have like an attempt. Ubuntu is a *somewhat* major philosophy in African and REALLY connects to a lot of Asian philosophies but he doesn't dedicate any more than 1 or 2 pages to it. South America has MANY philosophers but they are never mentioned. As another review mentioned, I honestly think he mentions maybe one female philosopher but doesn't go into feminist philosophy at all.BUT It's still a very great and interesting read with a lot of love towards the material and towards philosophy in general. It's just not the book you might have been looking for. If you find Indian or Chinese philosophy fascinating then BUY this book. But that's mostly what it is. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars must-read on how to avoid self-destructive international conflicts of interest *by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2020* anyone who's learned a second language enough to dream in it has experienced a moment (or more) of identity shift—where you feel like a different 'you' when you're thinking or speaking it. reading baggini's thoughtful survey of culturally alternate realities will give you the same feeling; and it's not always a great feeling. that said, if you want to bargain, prevent escalation, or resolve a conflict of interest across these great cultural/philosophical traditions, you'll want to survey the perspectives offered here. ## Frequently Bought Together - How the World Thinks - Philosophy and Life: Exploring the Great Questions of How to Live - The History of Philosophy --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/213914280-how-the-world-thinks-a-global-history-of-philosophy](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/213914280-how-the-world-thinks-a-global-history-of-philosophy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
