Heroic Chat with William B. Irvine: What It Means To Be a Hero

In today's Heroic Chat, we are joined by William B. Irvine.   William B. Irvine is professor of philosophy at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. Irvine writes books on philosophy for an average audience. He says, "I am not interested, as most of my philosophical colleagues are, in writing primarily for other philosophers. Rather, my intended audience can best be described as intellectually-upscale general readers who have a minimal background in philosophy but who are interested in carefully rethinking the assumptions of everyday life." He is also the author of The Stoic Challenge and A Guide to the Good Life.   Get the full show notes here: https://www.heroic.us/optimize/heroic-chat-william-b-irvine   Move from Theory to Practice to Mastery:   'Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential' is now available in stores!
