One of the best introductory books on the subject I've ever read is one I mentioned earlier, The Story of Philosophy by Will Durant. Because it was first published in 1926, you won't be reading anything approaching modern philosophical thought in its pages, but it remains a great overview of the philosophical classics, and is extremely readable.

Unfortunately, it's not available as an e-book, but last I checked it can still be found in paper and audio formats.
