Stoicism Today: Selected Writings (Volume II)

By Patrick Ussher

Real-Life Stoic Wisdom for a Chaotic World

Stoicism was never meant to remain on the page - it was meant to be lived. Stoicism Today Volume Two brings together over forty essays showing how Stoic principles can guide us through modern challenges: illness, grief, uncertainty, conflict, information overload and moral complexity in a fast-changing world.

This collection offers:

- Philosophical grounding - clear essays that explore core Stoic themes such as virtue, fate, reason and resilience

- Real lives, real struggles - reflections from people applying Stoicism while facing illness, loss, trauma or personal crisis

- Practical guidance - Stoic strategies for relationships, decision-making, emotional balance, social responsibility and technology use

- Thoughtful debate - open, honest discussions about how Stoicism fits into modern culture, spirituality, atheism and ethics

- Accessibility + depth - ideal for both newcomers and experienced readers of Stoic philosophy

If you value the work of Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca - or you enjoy modern Stoic interpreters such as Massimo Pigliucci, Donald Robertson or Ryan Holiday - this volume offers a grounded, relatable and human continuation of the tradition.

Stoicism for real life - with empathy, clarity and courage.
