LA LLAMADA DEL CORAJE NOS LLEGA A CADA UNO DE NOSOTROS UNA VEZ EN LA VIDA. SI NO RESPONDES TÚ, QUIÉN LO HARÁ? SI NO ES AHORA, CUÁNDO?

Nada es posible sin la virtud del coraje. Desde los antiguos espartanos hasta el Movimiento por los derechos civiles; desde científicos pioneros hasta empresarios innovadores, o desde Charles de Gaulle hasta Florence Nightingale, los grandes líderes han pasado a la historia por los riesgos que se atrevieron a asumir. Sin embargo, hoy somos muchos los que nos vemos paralizados por el miedo.

En La llamada del coraje, Ryan Holiday analiza los elementos de miedo, una expresión de cobardía, los elementos de coraje, una expresión de valentía y, por último, los elementos de heroísmo, una expresión de valor.

A través de interesantes historias sobre líderes históricos y contemporáneos, incluidos Charles De Gaulle, Florence Nightingale y el Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday le muestra cómo conquistar el miedo y practicar la valentía en su vida diaria. También profundizará en los dilemas morales y los valientes actos de figuras menos conocidas, pero igualmente importantes, de la historia antigua y moderna, como Helvidius Priscus, un senador romano que se mantuvo firme contra el emperador Vespasiano, incluso de cara a la muerte; Frank Serpico, un ex detective del Departamento de Policía de la ciudad de Nueva York que expuso la corrupción policial; y Frederick Douglass y una esclava llamada Nelly, cuya feroz resistencia contra sus captores inspiró su propia cruzada para acabar con la esclavitud.

En un mundo en el que el miedo campa a sus anchas --cuando la gente prefiere quedarse al margen antes que hablar en contra de la injusticia, seguir las convenciones antes que apostar por sí mismos y hacer la vista gorda ante las feas realidades de la vida moderna-- necesitamos valor más que alguna vez. Necesitamos el coraje de los denunciantes y los que toman riesgos.

Necesitamos el coraje de activistas y aventureros. Necesitamos el coraje de los escritores que dicen la verdad, y el coraje de los líderes para escuchar. Todo en la vida empieza con el coraje. Y este libro te dotará de la valentía necesaria para dar el primer paso.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The instant New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller!

Ryan Holiday's bestselling trilogy --The Obstacle Is the Way, Ego is the Enemy, and Stillness is the Key-- captivated professional athletes, CEOs, politicians, and entrepreneurs and helped bring Stoicism to millions of readers. Now, in the first book of an exciting new series on the cardinal virtues of ancient philosophy, Holiday explores the most foundational virtue of all: Courage.

Almost every religion, spiritual practice, philosophy and person grapples with fear. The most repeated phrase in the Bible is "Be not afraid." The ancient Greeks spoke of phobos, panic and terror. It is natural to feel fear, the Stoics believed, but it cannot rule you. Courage, then, is the ability to rise above fear, to do what's right, to do what's needed, to do what is true. And so it rests at the heart of the works of Marcus Aurelius, Aristotle, and CS Lewis, alongside temperance, justice, and wisdom.

In Courage Is Calling, Ryan Holiday breaks down the elements of fear, an expression of cowardice, the elements of courage, an expression of bravery, and lastly, the elements of heroism, an expression of valor. Through engaging stories about historic and contemporary leaders, including Charles De Gaulle, Florence Nightingale, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday shows you how to conquer fear and practice courage in your daily life.

You'll also delve deep into the moral dilemmas and courageous acts of lesser-known, but equally as important, figures from ancient and modern history, such as Helvidius Priscus, a Roman Senator who stood his ground against emperor Vespasian, even in the face of death; Frank Serpico, a former New York City Police Department Detective who exposed police corruption; and Frederick Douglass and a slave named Nelly, whose fierce resistance against her captors inspired his own crusade to end slavery.

In a world in which fear runs rampant --when people would rather stand on the sidelines than speak out against injustice, go along with convention than bet on themselves, and turn a blind eye to the ugly realities of modern life-- we need courage more than ever. We need the courage of whistleblowers and risk takers. We need the courage of activists and adventurers. We need the courage of writers who speak the truth --and the courage of leaders to listen.

We need you to step into the arena and fight.
