REVIEW: Perfect example of the greatness of the ancient philosophers over today’s so called, “intellectuals”. I say this because, as a non-native English speaker I found the words of the ancient philosophers much clearer and understandable than the commentaries given by the translators in the beginning of each chapter. The greatness lies not in uttering over-complicated, blurry phrases for the sake of looking intellectual but in communicating in a simple and clear way that can be understood even by the most inferior readers like myself.
