biofaust 's review for:
Read at short distance from Massimo Pigliucci's "How to be a Stoic", this book was bound to become the bad example of an introduction to Stoicism.
I obtained the book for free during a weekend giveaway the author advertised on the Stoicism subreddit, a space the author apparently uses to market it.
Even if one might say that this book and Pigliucci's come to similar conclusion, the exposition here is cumbersome, being Stoicism mixed first (and admittedly) with the Buddha Dharma, and then later with rather pointless excursi about quantum physics, astrophysics and what-more.
It is enough to read the last 2 chapters containing the exercises to capture all the juice there is in this rather dry fruit.
Too bad.
