One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions—a cornerstone of Western thought.

Translation by George Long revised by Duncan Steen.

This book was much more than a pleasant surprise. In fact it has instantly become one of my all-time favorites.

Considering that Marcus Aurelius wrote this almost 2000 years ago it is remarkable to see how little has changed. The book opened my eyes and solidified my opinion to a great many universal truths. Definitely worth reading more than once.

In terms of "bang for your buck" I have not come across a better book so far. If you are reading this review right now, get the book you won't regret it.
