Über diesen Titel
How can I live a good life? Who do I want to become? And how do I get there?
These are some of life's biggest questions. But they can be hard to think through. Fortunately, a group of philosophers from ancient Greece and Rome have already done a lot of the heavy lifting. Drawing on the philosophies, life lessons and experiences of key thinkers, Live Like a Philosopher will help you navigate these existential waters with invaluable insights for modern life.
From finding balance with Aristotle and embracing uncertainty with Carneades, to avoiding pain with Epicurus and learning how to question everything with Socrates, this is a powerful toolkit to help you navigate the highs and lows of modern life. Organized around three main themes of pleasure, character, and doubt, there's something to learn from each master in this philosophical quest. Live Like a Philosopher is the helping hand we all need to make life better.©2025 Massimo Pigliucci, Gregory Lopez and Meredith Alexander Kunz

As a comprehensive and practical guide to ancient wisdom, this book is in a class of its own. I recommend it with enthusiasm. (A.A. Long, author of Epictetus: A Stoic and Socratic Guide to Life)
Live Like a Philosopher has everything you could want from a book of practical philosophy . . . it's perfect for all the curious seekers out there who want to know, question, and test philosophical ideas for themselves. (Brittany Polat)
A refreshing example of a too-rare form of self-help, in which the goal isn't success or happiness but becoming a better human being.
The wisdom of the early Greco-Roman philosophers comes alive in Live Like a Philosopher, making their inquiries relevant and accessible for today's audience, helping each of us create our own unique blueprint for a meaningful life. (Sharon Salzberg author of Real Life)
