One thing alone could save him: philosophy, the love of wisdom! The remarkable story of Marcus Aurelius' life and philosophical journey is brought to life by philosopher and psychotherapist Donald J. Robertson, in a sweeping historical epic of a graphic novel, based on a close study of the historical evidence, with the stunning full-color artwork of award-winning illustrator Zé Nuno Fraga"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 188.0207 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 188.0207 Robertson Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 188.0207 Ro Checked In Add Copy to MyList
