7 Philosophy Books for Beginners

You don't need to go to college to study philosophy — anybody can do it if they are willing to dedicate themselves to the work of deep, difficult reading. But I want to make it a little bit easier for you. So I'm suggesting 7 books for philosophy beginners. 2 books are introductions, written specifically with beginners in mind. But the other 5 are classic primary texts from the history of philosophy. All of these will prove to be immensely rewarding for anybody willing to put in the work.
