Justice, in Ryan Holiday's account, is not an abstraction argued in seminar rooms. It is a series of small choices made when nobody is checking and nothing forces the issue.
Right Thing, Right Now continues the cardinal virtues series with material drawn from Stoic philosophy and from lives where holding a principle carried a price. The book examines character in public and private settings, the pressures that bend decisions quietly, and the practice of choosing well without waiting for conditions to become convenient. Examples run from historical figures to people whose names never travelled far.
Key features:
• Stoic ethics presented for everyday decisions rather than debate
• Accounts of people who held a line at personal cost
• A framework that transfers to work, family and civic life
• Companion volume to Holiday's earlier writing on courage
Written for readers of ethics, leadership and practical philosophy, including those who arrived through The Daily Stoic. Published by Profile Books and available from Boipoka.
