Lives of the Stoics: The Art of Living from Zeno to Marcus Aurelius: New York Times Bestsellers - Business

Autor Ryan Holiday, Stephen Hanselman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 sep 2020
For millennia, Stoicism has been the ancient philosophy that attracts those who seek greatness, from athletes to politicians and everyone in between. And no wonder: its embrace of self-mastery, virtue and indifference to that which we cannot control has much to offer those grappling with today's chaotic world. But who were the Stoics? In this book, Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman offer a fresh approach to understanding Stoicism through the lives of the people who practiced it. Through short biographies of all the famous, and lesser-known, Stoics, this book will show what it means to live stoically, and reveal the lessons to be learned from their struggles and successes. The result is a treasure trove of insights for anyone in search of living a good life.

A great read, particularly for a tough time
Wonderful
There is philosophy for school and philosophy for life. This book is about the lives of men and women who lived their words and shows you how to do the same.
Whether you're a general or a gardener, a stockbroker or a senator, there is much to learn from Ryan Holiday's excellent Lives of the Stoics.
At a time when public nobility is hard to come by, this is a good reminder of the power of ethical leadership.
