The Emperor's Handbook
A New Translation of the Meditations
Book • 2002
This book is a vivid and fresh translation of Marcus Aurelius’s 'Meditations', an essential work on Stoic philosophy.
Written by the Roman emperor who remained untainted by wealth and power, it provides guidance on how to live a good life amidst adversity, find happiness and peace in turbulent times, and make ethical choices without self-interest.
The book is praised for its relevance today as it was in the second century and is recommended for anyone who has faced adversity or holds positions of authority.
