Pierre Hadot's scholarly masterwork on Marcus Aurelius — the first rigorous philosophical analysis of Meditations. He argues that Stoic philosophy was not a theory to be studied but a way of life to be practiced.

Ryan HolidayAuthor & Stoic philosopher

I like Donald Robertson's book *How To Think Like a Roman Emperor* but the best book about Stoicism that's not written by one of the Stoics has got to be *The Inner Citadel* by Pierre Hadot.
