Philosophy & History

Grace Owane has long studied and read philosophy, and Stoic Courage is Grace's first book. It opens the series Ancient Minds, Real Lives, which starts from a single question: what did these thinkers actually go through before we began quoting them on posters? Each story is traced back to the ancient sources, with the doubts left in, and each is tied to a modern pressure: a meeting, a debt, a message sent too fast. Grace's aim is to be accurate, readable and honest about what we do not know.
