THE COMPLETE WORKS OF MARCUS AURELIUS IN TWO VOLUMES
This is the personal journal kept by the beloved Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius. It was never meant for publication and yet, after his death, it became probably the most widely read book on Stoic philosophy.
Meditations is a deeply moving personal journal which is uplifting and invigorating.
While Meditations is one of the best-read Stoic books, not many of us know about Marcus’ other writings: his personal letters and speeches. For the first time ever Aurelius, the Unknown presents all his letters and speeches in a single volume.
Also includes a biographic sketch and several anecdotes from his life. A must read for all fans of Marcus Aurelius. https://amzn.to/2DqLLiT
THE COMPLETE WORKS OF MUSONIUS RUFUS IN A SINGLE VOLUME
Musonius Rufus, the man who taught Epictetus, has something to say on everything.
A man far ahead of his time, he was a minimalist, vegetarian, proto-feminist, and more.
All rendered in modern, plain English.
STOIC HAPPINESS
In this discourse, Seneca warns us that following the crowd is no way to be happy. He tells us that happiness is close at hand, by what means we can achieve it and how to go about finding it.
UNSHAKABLE FREEDOM
The Stoic guide to a ‘life that flows well’
How can we achieve total personal freedom when we have so many obligations and so many demands on our time? Is personal freedom even possible? Yes, said the Stoics and gave us a blueprint for freedom. Dr Chakrapani brings their teachings to the digital era.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
You’ll “probably get through it in a few hours, enjoy the whole thing, and come away with an accurate and workable idea of Stoic philosophy. So please do just go and read it.”
DONALD ROBERTSON, Book Reviews—Stoicism
“If you want to apply [the Stoic principles] right away, it is a wonderful book for that. This will help a lot of people. This is a gateway book.”
Dr. GREGORY SADLER, Sadler’s Honest Book Reviews.
Dr. Chakrapani has written a superbly helpful book.”
BROGA, Amazon (UK)
The absolute best book by far … is Unshakable Freedom by Chuck Chakrapani … It explains Stoicism in an extremely accessible and easy to understand format. Highly recommended. I've gifted it to quite a few people.

THE COMPLETE WORKS OF EPICTETUS
A set of five indispensable books
Stoic Foundations (Discourses Book 1) explains the basic tenets of Stoicism. If you are interested in Epictetus’ teachings, this where you should start.
Stoic Choices is the plain English version of Discourses Book 2. It discusses what our choices are in life and how to make better choices.
Stoic Training is the third book of Discourses of Epictetus in plain English. Stoics did not only believe in theoretical knowledge but held it as critical that we practice what we learned.
Stoic Freedom (Discourses Book 4) focuses on freedom. Personal freedom is close to Epictetus’ heart, and his rhetoric shines when he talks about it. But, what does a free person look like?
Stoic Inspirations includes a summary (or extracts) from the above four books by Arrian (Enchirdion) and The Golden Sayings of Epictetus. It also includes “fragments” (quotes) as well as a biography.

The Good Life Handbook
The Good Life Handbook is a rendering of Epictetus' Enchiridion in plain English. It is a concise summary of the teachings of Epictetus, as transcribed and later summarized by his student Flavius Arrian.
The Handbook is a guide to the good life. It answers the question, “How can we be good and live free and happy, no matter what else is happening around us?”
Ancient Stoics lived in a time of turmoil under difficult conditions. So, the solutions they found to living free were tested under very stringent conditions. For example, Epictetus was a lame slave who made himself free and happy later in life by following the principles set out in this book.
