One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions—a cornerstone of Western thought.

Fascinating read. Gives a great insights in to the thoughts of Marcus Aurelius. I always find it fascinating to read older texts, especially when they show that the thoughts and struggles of man are the same now as they were some 2000 years ago.
The narrator is phenomenal, he really makes the text interesting to hear.
