One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121 - 180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions - a cornerstone of Western thought.

Meditations is beautifully narrated here, so it felt like being in the theater of the round, hearing a lecturer in the ancient times. I studied stoic philosophy when I was in college in the early 80's, so this awakened ideas nestled deep inside my cells that have been hibernating for over 30 years. It's incredible to consider the year of his writings was in the 100's AD. There is truly nothing new under the sun and all of the lessons contained within this book will lead you to a happier life now if you apply them.

Splendid performance!

In this audio format, you can carry these precious writings wherever you go. Maybe 2000 years old yet vibrant with truth. The narrator is also great, and a necessary ingredient for s great time. Thanks!

Thank you Marcus

One of the true guides of mankind, as far as ethics and lifetime phillosophies go, along with Les Miserables and a few others.

Great thoughts, insights from so many years ago apply now. Does make one think of Hannibal and Clarice for a moment though...everyone should read this and take notes. I'm going to read it again as I know I missed some and this is to good to miss.
