I'm looking for a philosophy book which gives a informative insight in ourselves or the world around us. A book which is entertaining and allows the reader to question things, well anyone recommend one?

I currently got my eyes on 'How to Win Every Argument'. Sounds like the good read. If anyone has read it, please leave your feedback.

Two of my favorites are.....

"Zen flesh Zen Bones"

"Genius of the Absurd" Lao Tzu

Immovable Wisdom: The Art of Zen Strategy : The Teachings of Takuan Soho

The Unfettered Mind

Proverbs

Robert Pirsig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". One of my all-time favorite books.

"How to Win Every Argument"? Just walk away...

A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari.

Consider also reading Albert Camus's essay The Myth of Sisyphus if you've never been exposed to it.
