Can anyone recommend me something for the general overview of mankind and history? Maybe a series of books or ones by different authors encompassing different time periods? It's not one of my strong suits and I'd like the brush up. Someone told me Susan Wise Bauer The Story of The World but I read some reviews and shes a bit of a religion nut and I'd kind of like to stay away from that. Thanks.

Rise of the West by William McNeill is what you want.
much more analytical even on religion

though the history of religion is essential to the history of civilization.

Sophie's World
it's a novel that gives a simple explanation of just about every philosopher in chronological order
