Obviously, Epictetus is amazing. This is an easy to read book of wisdom that everybody should know about and read (Albert Ellis bases his theory on the philosophy of Epictetus, so that's cool). Epictetus gets five stars, if I had the right to rate him. However, I was disappointed by how small the books were that I ordered, they seemed over-priced for being so small. If you order this, be prepared for a tiny book that you can hold in the palm of your hand (if you have medium to large hands, that is.).
