SUMMARY:Donald Robertson | How to Think Like a Roman Emperor
DESCRIPTION:To mark the publication of his latest book\, How to Think Like a Roman Emperor: The Stoic Philosophy of Marcus Aurelius\, Donald Robertson will be giving a talk and signing copies of the book at Ben McNally Books. \nWhen: \nSaturday May 4th \n2 to 4pm \nWhere: \nBen McNally Books \n366 Bay Street \nCost: \nThis is a free event \nPlease confirm your attendance here\, as space is limited \n\n \nRoman emperor Marcus Aurelius was the last famous Stoic philosopher of the ancient world. The Meditations\, his personal journal\, survives to this day as one of the most loved self-help and spiritual classics of all time. In How to Think Like a Roman Emperor\, cognitive psychotherapist Donald Robertson weaves the life and philosophy of Marcus Aurelius together seamlessly to provide a compelling modern-day guide to the Stoic wisdom followed by countless individuals throughout the centuries as a path to achieving greater fulfillment and emotional resilience. \nHow to Think Like a Roman Emperor takes readers on a transformative journey along with Marcus\, following his progress from a young noble at the court of Hadrian—taken under the wing of some of the finest philosophers of his day—through to his reign as emperor of Rome at the height of its power. Robertson shows how Marcus used philosophical doctrines and therapeutic practices to build emotional resilience and endure tremendous adversity\, and guides readers through applying the same methods to their own lives. \nCombining remarkable stories from Marcus’s life with insights from modern psychology and the enduring wisdom of his philosophy\, How to Think Like a Roman Emperor puts a human face on Stoicism and offers a timeless and essential guide to handling the ethical and psychological challenges we face today. \n\nDonald Robertson is a cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist\, trainer\, and writer. He was born in Ayrshire\, Scotland\, and after living in England and working in London for many years\, he emigrated to Canada where he now lives. \nRobertson has been researching Stoicism and applying it in his work for twenty years. He is one of the founding members of the non-profit organization Modern Stoicism. \n000000
