How to Do the Right Thing
"Kaster creates a meaningful and original tapestry of Senecan thought. . . . His translations are precise, stylistically appealing, and incredibly clever in reproducing the readability and affective impact of the original—a model to emulate. He allows himself the freedom to give Seneca an English voice that speaks to modern readers."---Jula Wildberger, Bryn Mawr Classical Review

"Drawing widely on Seneca’s Dialogues (i.e. essays) and his 120 Moral Epistles, [Kaster] discusses the question of fairness under five headings, each with a brief introduction…all beautifully elucidated."---Susan S. Meyer, Classics For All
"Excellent."---David Lorimer, Paradigm Explorer
