Description
|
|
|
|
From elegant essays on morality, happiness, and the avoidance of anger to an intimate and moving letter to his grieving wife on the death of their daughter, Plutarch's words of consolation and inspiration are collected here, and two millennia later still offer wisdom and guidance. This book is part of a series of compact paperback editions unearthing potent books of ideas from the world's great thinkers, pioneers, radicals, and visionaries—books that have transformed the way we see each other and ourselves.
