Evaluate Out Of Books An Incomplete Education

(This review is of the first edition)This is a great book for reminding the reader of the things they learned in high school and college. It is also pretty good at teaching you the things that you should have learned. So, it really does as it promises -- fills in the gaps in your education.That said, it in itself is incomplete, but that is probably how it must be. Some sections give short shrift to various subject areas and really don't give the reader enough information at all. For example,

I was really looking forward to reading this book, and was excited when I began. I knew that it would take some time due to its length, but I didn't expect to be so disappointed in it.It's divided into 12 chapters, plus a lexicon at the end. The chapters are: American Studies, Art History, Economics, Film, Literature, Music, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Religion, Science, and World History. I'm going to share my thoughts on each below.American Studies: I understand this book is

I was all over the lexicon chapter. The format of that section along with priceless information was worth the 600 Some odd pages it took to get to that content. The art history was engaging and I like that a variety of artists were explored. I'm a tad bit confused why Socrates was not one of the 20 thinkers or philosophers highlighted yet the chapter's introduced with the famous painting depicting his suicide/death sentence. I would not classify your education as incomplete if you don't know



Probably the best free-in-a-curbside-box book I've ever owned. It was odd to get that please-don't-end feeling from what's basically just a collection of random facts & info, but it was just so damned entertaining. It's all very well organized, with chapters devoted to literature, music, philosophy, economics, film, etc., and the knowledge is dispense with cleverness and wit - but not overwhelmingly so. The Lexicon section was probably my favorite, with its lists of Latin abbreviations,

This book would give you a tour of authors from the West in Liberal arts. It's a repertoire of facts.Basically an outline of Western Liberal education. I appreciated Literary and Poetry chapters. I never took literature or poetry classes. I would recommend this to high-schoolers or someone who skipped education. Deus Vult, Gottfried

I nicknamed this book "the book that is making me smarter". Co-written by a Smithie (yay!), it is an incredibly comprehensive overview of just about everything, divided into the categories of: American Studies, Art, Economics, Film, Literature, Music, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Religion, Science, World History, and a bonus Lexicon. I feel much better equipped to play Trivial Persuit, assuming that I've absorbed enough. I got this out as a library loan, so I ended up on a strict
