Description
Life's Missing Instruction Manual
Epictetus' essential teachings and pithy sayings, compiled by his closet student, offer a practical guide to Stoic philosophy. Written by a former slave who knew suffering firsthand, this philosophy was aimed at relieving human suffering here and now.
This new edition is rendered in contemporary English, with a foreword, and is the most accessible and actionable guide to Stoic philosophy, as relevant today as it was in the Roman Empire.
