I'm in the midst of reading 'Think' by Simon Blackburn.

Has anyone ever read this before? It is suggested, via it's subtitle, as "A compelling introduction to philosophy". I am a bit of a beginner in the ideas of the subject of Philosophy. It is my attempt to become a more knowledgable person, or potentially, a way to further illuminate my stupidity.

I'm having an extremely tough time actually understanding anything that is being said it in. I am having to re-read every single sentence, trying to grasp any extract of meaning. I still sort of have no idea what this book is really trying to tell me 35 pages in...
