<p><b>THE INSTANT <i>NEW YORK TIMES </i>BESTSELLER</b><br><br><b>'In story after page-turning story, <i>Lives of the Stoics</i> brings ancient philosophers to life.' - David Epstein, bestselling author of Range</b><br><br><b>'Wonderful' - Chris Bosh, two-time NBA Champion</b><br><br>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? <br><br>In this book, Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman offer a fresh approach to understanding Stoicism through the lives of the people who practiced it - from Cicero to Zeno, Cato to Seneca, Diogenes to Marcus Aurelius. 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.</p>
