This book by Epictetus came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Jonathan Haidt. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“And then also Epictetus, his collected works. And what I do whenever I read, I do all my reading electronically now”— Jonathan Haidt
The guest here is Jonathan Haidt: Social psychologist at NYU's Stern School of Business; author of The Happiness Hypothesis, The Righteous Mind, and (with Greg Lukianoff) The Coddling of the American Mind; founder of Heterodox Academy. Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt on antifragility, moral pluralism, why universities and kids are breaking, and getting smarter, stronger, more sociable.
