How to be Stoic: ancient philosophy and modern life. Pileucci M.

Being a Stoic in the modern world is no more complicated than in ancient Greece. To do this, you need to have peace of mind to take what is impossible to change, courage - to change the possible, and wisdom is to always distinguish one from the other. In his book “How to be Stoic”, the famous American philosopher and biologist Massimo Piliucci offers the reader a fascinating journey into the depths of this ancient philosophy, and as a guide he chooses the ancient Greek Stoic of the Epicta. Stoicism is a very modern philosophy that teaches how to make correct decisions, to manage anger, to perceive criticism, how to relate to death - its own and their loved ones. But the main question that Stoicism answers is how to live correctly.
