Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet. I'm the head of programming, Conor Boyle. Today's episode is with businessman and philanthropist Robert Rosencranz. Rosencranz joined us to discuss the themes of his new book, The Stoic Capitalist, in conversation with fellow businessman and author Bill Browder. Let's join Bill now with more.
Hello, I'm Bill Browder. I am here to interview for Intelligence Squared Robert Rosencranz, my my uh friend, and and uh we're here to talk about his book, uh, The Stoic Capitalist. This is a great book. Uh, I've read it twice. Um, in fact, I had a chance to read it
in process and um I had then a chance to read it as it was polished up. And I would say that this book is kind of like a Rorschach test in the in that each person who reads it um sees a different book. On one hand this book is about um it's sort of a how-to book, how to become successful. On another hand, it's a book about sort of philosophy of life. On the other hand, it's a book about um all different subjects and and Robert's view on the world.
