Product Information

A dynamic guide to philosophy for everyday life - using key ideas to live well and happily In his engaging book, Jules Evans explains how ancient philosophy saved his life, and how we can all use it to become happier, wiser and more resilient. Jules imagines a dream school, which includes 12 of the greatest and most colourful thinkers the world has ever known. Each of these ancient philosophers teaches a technique we can use to transform ourselves and live better lives. These practical techniques are illustrated by the extraordinary stories of real people who are using them today - from marines to magicians, from astronauts to anarchists and from CBT psychologists to soldiers. Jules also explores how ancient philosophy is inspiring modern communities - Socratic cafes, Stoic armies, Platonic sects, Sceptic summer camps - and even whole nations in their quest for the good life.

  • Bad printing

    Some of the pages are not printed well. They are blurry. Seems quite cheap. The content is good. The quality is poor.

  • Stoicism for the fools who have no self-control

    If you need advice on how to behave today, this is the book for you. If you know selfish, panic-stricken, stockpilers, this is the book to save them.
