Philosophy Books(for Theoretical Physics)

[Pinu7]

Science is independent of philosophy, however, Theoretical Physics is not JUST a science and sometimes philosophical arguments are employed. I have noticed that, although I do independent philosophy, I have never studied formal philosophy.

Can any of you recommend me a book on philosophy that, without being to verbose, covers the topics for someone who would want to eventually enter the field of theoretical physics? I would like it to be thought provoking too while still being somewhat concise.

That looks like a popular level science book than a philosophical one(I do not need a book about mysticism about Quantum Mechanics), I just want a book that is fairly unbiased and shows the major schools of thought of physical philosophy.

For example, is Philosophy of Physics by Sklar good.
