What's a /lit/ approved book that will give me a rundown on all major philosophers/philosophical schools of thought. Ie a book that helps explain Chinese, Greek, Muslim, Modern philosophers etc etc

I'm not sure there exists a /lit/-approved book that provides a substantive and useful overview of Western, Eastern, and Middle Eastern thought. For Western history of philosophy, Copleston's is the most popular.

No such thing exists.

No single volume will do that.
As mentioned, Copleston is good for western phil.

Mayhaps take a look at the ongoing 'history of philosophy without any gaps' podcast.
