This is the final book in the Solar Wind series about Marcus Aurelius. The last years of his life were not peaceful and calm, and after his death the children did not preserve the spiritual heritage that he left. And yet the memory of Emperor Marcus Aurelius, scientist and warrior, philosopher and man, has not been erased over the years. This memory remains with us two thousand years later because, as the famous French publicist Ernest Renan wrote about Marcus “With him, philosophy was on the throne. For a moment, thanks to him, the world was governed by the best and greatest man of his age.”
