At the moment I am reading these books.
Chris Daly "An introduction to Philosophical Methods"
Peter Sloterdijk "The art of philosophy"
Baggini, J. & Fosl, P. "The philosopher's toolkit. A compendium of philosophical concepts and methods"
Daniel Dennett "Intuition pumps and other tools for thinking"
I have looked through these book and am reading some parts more detailed. Overall I find it most interesting to see how these books have been structured and developed. Some have the appearance of a textbooks or handbook, for instance, Baggini & Fosl but also Dennett.
Some take on philosophical thinking as a way of critiquing existing thinking and philosophy, for instance Sloterdijk.
At the moment I would recommend them all. Especially taken together they create an interesting overview and give anyone interested in knowing what philosophical thinking and method is all about a good starting point.
