Synopsis

"Some things are up to us, and some things are not up to us."

With this single, revolutionary sentence, Epictetus unlocks the secret to an invincible life. The Enchiridion is a collection of 53 short, punchy lessons designed to strip away the anxiety, anger, and grief that come from trying to control the uncontrollable. As a former slave who rose to become one of Rome's most respected teachers, Epictetus speaks with the authority of someone who truly understands hardship. He teaches that our happiness depends not on what happens to us, but on how we interpret what happens. This book is a tactical manual for the soul, providing the psychological armor needed to navigate a world of uncertainty with dignity and calm.

The Power of Perception: Epictetus famously argues that "men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them." The Enchiridion provides the mental exercises necessary to reframe setbacks—from a broken cup to the loss of a job—as opportunities to practice virtue and maintain your "ruling faculty."

The Disciplines of Desire and Action: The handbook outlines how to align your desires with reality. By training yourself to want only what is within your control, you become immune to disappointment. Epictetus guides the reader toward the role of the "cosmopolitan"—a citizen of the world who acts with social duty while remaining internally detached from the outcome.

Why It Is a Global Masterpiece: The Enchiridion has been the bedside companion of emperors, generals, and modern-day leaders for two millennia. From Marcus Aurelius to Admiral James Stockdale in a POW camp, its "no-excuses" approach to personal responsibility and emotional freedom has saved countless minds from despair. It is the shortest path to a life of tranquility.

    Historians describe Cambodia as the Khmer State or the Angkorian Empire (Khmer:) from the 9th century to the 15th century, when it was a Hindu/Buddhist empire in Southeast Asia. The empire, which developed from the old societies of Funan and Chenla, governed and/or "vassalized" the majority of mainland Southeast Asia and parts of Southern China, covering from the suggestion of the Indochinese Peninsula northward to modern-day Yunnan province in China, and from Vietnam westward to Myanmar. The Khmer Empire was greater at its peak than the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire) that existed at the exact same period. 
The site of Angkor, in modern-day Cambodia, which worked as the Khmer capital throughout the empire's prime time, is maybe its most long-lasting tradition. The stunning Angkor structures, like Angkor Wat and Bayon, attest to the Khmer Empire's incredible strength and wealth, remarkable art and culture, architectural strategy, visual accomplishments, and the series of belief systems that it bought from in time. Angkor was the world's biggest pre-industrial cosmopolitan center between the 11th and 13th centuries, according to satellite photography. 
Let’s learn more about what we know about the happenings in this vast empire from so long ago.

Family life has changed dramatically over the past 60 years.
Greater choice and autonomy, especially for women, and a more equal domestic sphere have brought great gains for human freedom. However, argues David Goodhart, there have been losses and unintended consequences too – in family instability, children's declining mental health, and the ever-rising demands on the welfare state and social care system. Sharply falling birthrates also present major challenges.
For many people, especially in the bottom half of the income spectrum, the costs are now too high. The Care Dilemma argues that we need a new policy settlement that supports gender equality while also recognising the importance of stable families and community life, and that sees having children as a public as well as private good.
