Stoic Foundations: The Cornerstone Works of Stoicism book by Marcus Aurelius

An essential guide to the core texts of Stoic philosophy, featuring a new introduction from Massimo Pigliucci, author of  How To Be A Stoic

Stoicism is a philosophy, a worldview, and a transformational practice. Throughout the centuries everyone from kings and presidents to Silicone Valley entrepreneurs have drawn inspiration and wisdom from Stoicism. The best way to learn about Stoic philosophy is always to go back to the foundation—the original texts, written by the great Stoic philosophers.
 
Three writers form the bedrock of Stoic Marcus Aurelius, a Roman Emperor; Seneca, a playwright and advisor; and Epictetus, a former slave turned philosopher and teacher.   Stoic Foundations combines the work of these three pillars of Stoic thought into one essential volume, including Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations, selections from Seneca’s Letters from a Stoic , and Epictetus’s Enchiridion.
