The Stoic Virtue series devotes a full book to each of the four cardinal virtues of Stoic philosophy. Ryan Holiday began the series in 2021 with Courage Is Calling, which examines bravery through historical examples. Discipline Is Destiny (2022) covers temperance and self-control. Right Thing. Right Now. (2024) addresses justice.
The final book, Wisdom Takes Work (2025), completes the four-virtue cycle. Each book in the series uses stories from historical figures to illustrate how the virtue works in practice.
