Stoicism As a Warrior Philosophy

If Stoicism seriously attracts your attention, you need a North Star. In the life of work William Spears has invested in this text, you have a resource that provides authentic, thorough guidance. He writes it in a wonderful manner that allows you to choose your own challenges, but with the tools included to have a 'best chance' of finding both methodology and reward. And when you master an aspect of Stoicism, it allows you to 'bite off' another piece of its life-sustaining wisdom and approach any challenge with confidence. While Stoicism has seen an explosion in popular interest, and is widely embraced in military circles, no serious philosophical work has yet explored its full relevance to the military profession. This book fills that gap. Endorsed by senior military officials and academic philosophers, Stoicism as a Warrior Philosophy provides compelling and original contributions to both military ethics and the modern Stoic resurgence.
