Description
An engaging guide to how Stoicism - the ancient philosophy of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius - can provide lessons for living in the modern world
Whenever we worry about what to eat, how to love, or simply how to be happy, we are worrying about how to lead a good life. No goal is more elusive. In How to Be a Stoic, philosopher Massimo Pigliucci offers Stoicism, the ancient philosophy that inspired the great emperor Marcus Aurelius, as the best way to attain it. Stoicism is a pragmatic philosophy that teaches us to act depending on what is within our control and separate things worth getting upset about from those that are not. By understanding Stoicism, we can learn to answer crucial questions. Should we get married or divorced? How should we bank in a world nearly destroyed by a financial crisis? How can we survive great personal tragedy? Whoever you are, Stoicism has something for you - and How to Be a Stoic is your essential guide.

Epictetus, a Greek stoic and freed slave, ran a thriving philosophy school in Nicropolis in the early second century AD. His animated discussions were celebrated for their rhetorical wizardry and were written down by Arrian, his most famous pupil. Together with the Enchiridion, a manual of his main ideas, and the fragments collected here, The Discourses argue that happiness lies in learning to perceive exactly what is in our power to change and what is not, and in embracing our fate to live in harmony with god and nature.

Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was the final famous Stoic philosopher of the ancient world. The Meditations, his personal journal, survives to this day as one of the most loved self-help and spiritual classics of all time.

He discusses Stoic techniques for coping with everyday problems, from irrational fears and bad habits to anger, pain, and illness.

Some people bounce back in response to setbacks; others break. We often think that these responses are hardwired, but fortunately this is not the case. Stoicism offers us an alternative approach. Plumbing the wisdom of one of the most popular and successful schools of thought from ancient Rome, philosopher William B. Irvine teaches us to turn any challenge on its head. The Stoic Challenge, then, is the ultimate guide to improving your quality of life through tactics developed by ancient Stoics, from Marcus Aurelius and Seneca to Epictetus.

Where can you find joy? Gain strength? How should we face our fears? Deal with the death of a loved one? And what about those reoccurring depressing thoughts? While traditional schooling doesn’t address such questions, it’s exactly what ancient schools of philosophy were all about: They taught you how to live. Even though these schools don’t exist anymore, you and I and most people are in as much need of a philosophy that guides us through life as we ever were. This compelling, highly actionable guide shows you how to deal more effectively with whatever life throws at you.

"While the history books are filled with tales of obsessive visionary geniuses who remade the world in their images with sheer, almost irrational force, I've found that history is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition."

Histoire
Gaius Musonius Rufus was a Roman Stoic philosopher of the first century AD. He has been referred to as the Roman Socrates and is also remembered for being the teacher of Epictetus. He taught philosophy in Rome during the reign of Nero and so was sent into exile in 65 AD, returning to Rome only under Galba. Twenty-one of his lectures survive together with a few fragmentary notes from others, all of which are contained in this narration.

The book draws its inspiration from stoicism, the ancient Greek philosophy of enduring pain or adversity with perseverance and resilience. Stoics focus on the things they can control, let go of everything else, and turn every new obstacle into an opportunity to get better, stronger, tougher. As Marcus Aurelius put it nearly 2000 years ago: “The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”

Enjoyable and parctical for us Westerners
Peter is fun to listen to, and the subject matter, Stoicim, is made easy to consume and apply right away. I find myself going to this time and time again on long drives.
I've read a few books on Stoicim by Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus, and Massimo ties them in real well.

Stoicism for First World Problems
Massimo provides an acceptable introduction to Stoicism as a well as some good background information in regard to the historical roots and modern branches of this tradition. However, the overall work is relatively shallow and poor when compared to the actual philosophical texts which he cites. I suggest reading the original books on the subject first.
Massimo is a professor of philosophy, and what he provides here is a personal account of applying the principles of Stoicism to his own life. The troubles and travails that he uses to relate his application of Stoicism to modern life are all pedestrian; the death of his parents in old age, the minor inconveniences of one who is a successful academic. While I do not wish to denigrate Massimo's personal experience and suffering, I do not feel that it provides adequate scope for the full consideration of the application of Stoicism to modern life.
To be fair, part of my dissatisfaction with this work has to do with the narrator, who's bland and plodding tone rendered this book drier and more boring than it needed to be, like a cut of meat that would have done well if marinated, but was instead grilled to being overdone. Honestly it would have been better if Massimo himself had read it, as his voice is rich and expressive in the parts of the text he does read.
If you would like to learn about Stoicism, I encourage you to read Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, or perhaps Seneca. For a more modern consideration of Stoicism as it applies to life, I strongly encourage you to read "Man's Search for Meaning" by Victor Frankel, who was a psychiatrist before he was placed in Auschwitz by the Nazis, and who writes with phenomenal compassion and clarity about his experiences as a holocaust survivor, as well as about how he applied what he learned to helping his patients.
This book was not a waste of my time, but there are better books available on the subject. I would very much like to read a treatise on modern Stoicism written by a contemporary psychologist or someone who otherwise has the background to deliver both a broader view of human life and a clearer sense of the implications of recent advances in psychology to the practice of Stoicism.
