  Discourses and Enchiridion

  Epictetus

  "It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters."
  Discourses and Enchiridion are foundational works of Stoic philosophy attributed to Epictetus, a former slave-turned-philosopher whose teachings emphasised that happiness comes not from external circumstances but from aligning one's desires with reality; and that in order to attain a good life through inner tranquillity, one must master one's desires, fulfil one's duties and practice right-thinking.
  
  The Discourses consists of detailed teachings and dialogues delivered by Epictetus, covering various aspects of ethics, virtue, and the nature of reality, while Enchiridion is a concise summary of Epictetus' teachings, designed for practical application.
  
  Both works stress the importance of personal responsibility, the necessity of self-examination, the pursuit of wisdom, and the cultivation of character as pathways to a fulfilling life.
  Epictetus (c. 55 – 135 CE) was a Stoic philosopher who lived most of his life in Rome as a slave and who, after gaining his freedom, established a philosophical school. Epictetus deeply influenced later thinkers and continues to be a significant figure in philosophy, particularly in discussions of ethics and personal resilience.

  Mysteries of the Social Brain describes the scientific underpinnings of human behavior and values. Through the retelling of fascinating clinical stories of people with neurological conditions, this book explores the parts of the brain that allow humans to thrive as social and creative beings. The authors reveal the relevance of our brain circuits to our well‑being―and the well‑being of our societies―and show what happens when changes in our brain circuitry drive changes in empathy, altruism, moral beliefs, and creativity. 
   
  By integrating perspectives from neurology, psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience, the stories in this book offer novel insights into the inner workings of the social brain and reveal groundbreaking findings from work in frontotemporal dementia, emotion, and the science of human values. This book showcases the discovery that creativity can emerge when there is decline in the brain’s language systems, a finding that highlights the robust, yet underappreciated connections between science and art. Listeners will learn about the biological basis of social behavior as well as simple steps that they can take to improve the functioning of their own social brains. 
   
  This book will captivate general listeners as well as clinicians and scientists who are interested in human social behavior, cognition, and emotion.

  In this third and final book of The Magus, Francis Barrett turns from magical practice to magical history—presenting a rare and invaluable compendium of the great minds who shaped Western occult philosophy. 
  Book III offers concise biographical accounts of dozens of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance adepts, including Zoroaster, Hermes Trismegistus, Pythagoras, Paracelsus, Roger Bacon, Agrippa, and more. These are the sages, mystics, alchemists, astrologers, and magicians whose teachings laid the foundation for everything in The Magus. 
  Far more than a bibliography, this is a spiritual lineage—a transmission of ideas and inspiration across generations. By exploring the lives and writings of these visionaries, Barrett reveals the continuity of esoteric wisdom through the centuries and situates his own work within a long tradition of initiates and seekers. 
  Whether you're a student of occult history or a practitioner of the arts, Book III offers insight into the intellectual and spiritual giants upon whose shoulders modern magic stands. Their philosophies echo across time—and this volume preserves their legacy.
