    It might be a bit introductory for some, but I really enjoyed At the Existentialist Café: Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails by Sarah Bakewell.

    She covers the Existentialist greats - Heidegger, Husserl, Sartre, Beauvoir, Camus. What made it great though was she also covered the historical context in which they developed their philosophies. For example, how the differences in the early lives between Satre and Campus led to some of their interpersonal strife.

    Its a nice combination of philosophy and history.

    Awesome! I'll have to check it out. I'm always on the lookout for better note systems. The syncing and Markdown are huge pluses.

    Isak from the Red Album was my jam as a freshman in college. That whole album rips and is huge nostalgia for me.
