The Teachings of Ptahhotep: The Oldest Book in the World is an ancient Egyptian text attributed to Ptahhotep, a vizier during the Fifth Dynasty (circa 2400 BCE). This work, preserved on papyrus, is considered one of the earliest examples of wisdom literature and offers timeless advice on ethical conduct, leadership, and personal development. The English translation by Battiscombe George Gunn brings these teachings to a modern audience.
