Reviews

"""This book addresses an important issue in Stoicism. As it is not a monolithic school, the author shows the progression of issues related to providence and underlines the evolution of Stoicism. Stoic philosophy might seem at first to have many contradictions regarding this topic, but the survey puts the progression of the ideas in perspective... an essential work for getting a better understanding of the important concept of providence."" - Bryn Mawr Classical Review ""In devoting a monograph to the topic of providence, [Collette] indisputably contributes to the relatively recent renewal of the field of Stoic cosmology and theology... C[ollette]’s book has the merit of offering a large overview of the topic of providence and of the network of related issues."" - The Classical Review"
