But what exactly did the Stoics believe? In \u003ci\u003eLessons in Stoicism\u003c\/i\u003e, philosopher John Sellars weaves together the key ideas of the three great Roman Stoics -- Seneca, Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius -- with snapshots of their fascinating lives, to show us how their ideas can help us today. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn vivid prose, Sellars shows how the works of these three Stoics have inspired readers ever since, speaking as they do to some of the perennial issues that face anyone trying to navigate their way through life. Their works, fundamentally, are about how to live -- how to understand one's place in the world, how to cope when things don't go well, how to manage one's emotions and how to behave towards others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConsoling and inspiring, \u003ci\u003eLessons in Stoicism\u003c\/i\u003e is a deeply thoughtful guide to the philosophy of a good life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Sellars\u003c\/b\u003e is a lecturer in Philosophy at Royal Holloway, University of London and a member of Wolfson College, Oxford.
