Publisher's Synopsis

A curated selection of the most significant life lessons from the iconic work of Stoic philosophy

That which is not good for the hive, neither is it good for the bee

Renowned Roman emperor and philosopher Marcus Aurelius compiled his Meditations nearly two thousand years ago, as a personal collection of reflections and reminders to help him lead a good life. As one of the greatest works of spiritual contemplation ever written, it continues to be revered for its timeless instruction on living stoically and in pursuit of the common good.

This beautifully illustrated edition is introduced by classicist James Romm and features a curated selection of the most significant life lessons, making it the perfect Stoic starting point.
