Why does the narrator scream?

The narrator screams randomly sometimes. This ruins the experience. The content is great, but the performance made it difficult to finish.

Excellent and Practical

This is a great audio book! While weaving relevant examples from life to illustrate points, the author really gives practical methods of applying Stoic philosophy to our lives. I recommend this book to anyone looking to improve themselves. It’s a great launching point into Stoicism.

A great source for reflection on living

I waited long for this book arrival. Although I have listen many books about Stoic philosophy before this is a refreshing view. I have enjoyed work before, both his books and online courses, but this one is definitely outstanding.

Mostly excellent

Mostly excellent, very well-written and a good contextualization of Meditations. I only dropped one star due to the repetitive nature of some parts, almost as if the author were trying to stretch the book out. Still, well worth a read especially if you're interested in learning more about Stoic philosophy.

A dose of tranquility

This book is great because it offers actual suggestions of things to do to practice stoicism. My only frustration is that it starts to get a bit repetitive. Full disclosure, I skipped the second part about the history of Stoicism because I was really after the advice for living. I may go back and listen that part... someday!!!!

Puts meat on stoic bones

This is a wonderful audio book that gets to the muscle and sinew of Stoicism by examining the life of one of its sages. While I have struggled with other good books on Stoicism, I have learned so much in reading “How to Think Like A Roman Emperor”. And, it is really hard to put down. In a word, it is fabulous.

Life changing

I like self-help books, and the little I knew about Stoicism intrigued me. This book is an easy listen and makes Stoicism seem practical for modern times. I found many policies here that I am applying to my own life with great success. If you like learning about philosophies and using them for your emotional health, this is a good one. I'm very glad I bought this.
