Since bestselling author Ryan Holiday re-introduced Stoicism to the world with The Obstacle Is the Way in 2014, this simple but powerful philosophy for life has become a global phenomenon.

From professional athletes and world leaders to entrepreneurs and creatives just starting out, this brilliant and engaging book has been an invaluable source of wisdom for anyone who wants to become more successful at what they do.

Now, Holiday has updated and expanded this modern classic with a new introduction and new chapters featuring a diverse set of inspiring characters. Unpacking lessons from the lives of historical icons, and reframing them for today's world, this book gives us an infinitely elastic formula for turning our toughest trials into triumphs.

Success for the world's greatest men and women has often come in the shape of their biggest obstacles—Stoicism, and this invaluable book, shows this can be true for us all.
