Donald Robertson writes about Stoicism, psychotherapy and the relationship between ancient philosophy and modern cognitive-behavioural practice. How to Think Like a Roman Emperor uses the life of Marcus Aurelius to explain Stoic exercises around judgement, adversity and self-control, while Stoicism and the Art of Happiness is a more direct practical introduction. The Philosophy of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy traces connections between Stoic thought and CBT, and his work on hypnosis is aimed more at practitioners. Robertson's books are explanatory and exercise-based rather than purely historical, often moving from a philosophical idea to a way of applying it. Key browsing terms include practical Stoicism, philosophy for everyday life and CBT-related psychology, especially for readers of William B. Irvine, Massimo Pigliucci and Ryan Holiday. Read more Less
