See for yourself a couple excerpts of the original book compared to this book:

Original:
"In the life of a man, his time is but a moment, his being an incessant flux, his senses a dim rushlight, his body a prey of worms, his soul an unquiet eddy, his fortune dark, and his fame doubtful. In short, all that is of body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors; life a warfare, a brief sojourning in an alien land; and after repute, oblivion. Where, then, can man find the power to guide and guard his steps? In one thing and one alone: philosophy."

Meditations in Modern English for Young Adults:
"Life is short, always changing, and our understanding of the world is limited. Our bodies decay over time, and luck is unpredictable. People won't always remember us after we're gone. So, what's the one thing that can always help us? It's philosophy."
