Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 Alexander the Great was the first person in these studies, because he is a compendium of the subject. He is a prime example of how adventurers are similar to one another, and how they all draw from the same source of energy.#2 Alexander’s hero-worship of Philip was imitative, but he was also opposed to his father’s likings. He loved to watch boxing and wrestling, but professed a complete detestation for the entire exercise of wrestling.#3 The story of the taming of Bucephalus is a clear example of the father-son relationship between Philip and Alexander. Philip was extremely proud of his son, and even though he was extremely angry with him, he still admired him.#4 Alexander’s code of personal conduct was based on the opposition between him and his father. He wanted to cut away everything that could hamper his adventure, and he wanted to deprive himself of everything that might make him feel pleasure.
