  “Short pamphlet by Vice Admiral James Stockdale about how the philosophy of Epictetus helped during his captivity by the Viet Cong.
  
  Fascinating reading, especially if you're interested in stoic philosophy.
  
  However, this essay is available for free on the web, and it's short enough to read comfortably on screen, so not necessarily worth buying on paper.”
