The ancient Greeks lived without restrictions. They loved without feeling shame, paid attention to their heart's desires, and created one of the most advanced societies known to us since ancient times.

Dr. Stephen Bertman shows us how to bring passion and value to our daily lives, just as the ancient Greeks meant it. And he achieves this by analyzing the eight principles of Greek wisdom, through the rich heritage of classical history and mythology.

Humanism, the Pursuit of Excellence,
the Application of the Measure, Self-awareness,
Rationality, Insatiable Curiosity,
the Love of Freedom, and Individuality
are the eight pillars
that transform life.
