This book presents a detailed reconstruction of the older Stoic theory of the psychology of action, which is discussed in relation to Aristotelian, Epicurean, Platonic, and some of the more influential modern theories. The role of the Stoic theory of action as the basis for their ethics is examined, after the main outlines of the reconstruction of the theory have been described. Important Greek terms are transliterated and explained, and a knowledge of Greek is not required. Classicists and philosophers interested in history of ethics, in action theory, or in Aristotelian and Stoic traditions.
