The Daily Stoic Bibliographic and Edition Record

Verified 2016 edition

Penguin Random House identifies the book as The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman.

The publisher lists the Portfolio hardcover with ISBN 9780735211735, publication date October 18, 2016, and 416 pages. Its description identifies 366 days of quotations, translations, commentary, exercises, historical anecdotes, and a glossary, drawing from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, and other Stoic thinkers.

The publisher's positioning, sales language, price, reader-outcome language, and availability are first-party commercial claims. They should be attributed or omitted.

Current format record

As of July 28, 2026, the publisher page also lists a 2025 audiobook and additional hardcover and large-print editions scheduled for October 6, 2026. Those future-format dates, page counts, prices, and availability require a publication-day refresh.

The E006 profile should anchor its bibliographic description to the 2016 hardcover that supports the episode-era discussion. It may note the later formats as a current publisher listing without implying that they were part of the March 2024 episode.

Reader-fit boundary

The daily structure may fit a reader who wants a brief recurring reflection prompt and an accessible modern presentation. That fit is a qualified editorial judgment, not a guaranteed outcome.

The book is not a complete history of Stoicism, a substitute for primary texts, a clinical intervention, or professional advice. Public pages should route philosophical claims to qualified scholarship and keep health claims outside the package.

Copyright and visual boundary
