In today's turbulent world, it's harder and harder to find a place of calm and to avoid conflict. Focusing on perceptive and influential anecdotes, observations and essays from ancient to modern times, Living Peacefully tackles an ever-relevant challenge: how to make peace with ourselves as well as the wider world.

On a personal level, Seneca the Younger advises on Stoic methods for managing worries and anxiety. Turning to society as a whole, Martin Luther King's eloquent and necessary Nobel Lecture features alongside wartime writings from Virginia Woolf. Japanese author Okakura Kakuzo lays out the calm simplicity of traditional tea ceremonies. Whilst Agnes Repplier shows how leisure is helpful and necessary for society, Jerome K. Jerome provides a refreshingly humorous take on living life as an idler.

Combining self-help, erudition, and healing wisdom, this is a book to treasure and to guide you through life. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
