Is this good? I'm about to buy it.

Are there any other good books on intellectual history?

It's an entire vast field of study, OP. So... yes, there are.

If it takes "Freud the pseud" seriously, discard it.

Ok, but you understand my meaning. Are there any good one that you can RECOMMEND me?

I kind of do, but the thing is it's so vast that you should probably narrow it down. The World of Thought in Ancient China is good, for example, but if you're not interested in ancient China probably not so much.

I'm concerned with western intellectual history, mostly philosophy and science.

That's still incredibly broad- you could fill libraries with the history of philosophy, and other libraries with the history of science. But anyway, maybe Raymond Williams' Keywords would be a good start/handy reference.

I nearly forgot about that guy.

Sounds interesting.
