About this product
Product Information
Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control - from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed "beguiling" and "fascinating," Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence ("Law 1: Never Outshine the Master"), others teach the value of confidence ("Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness"), and many recommend absolute self-preservation ("Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally"). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.Product Identifiers

ReviewsPraise for The 48 Laws of Power : "It's the rules for suits . . . Machiavelli has a new rival. And Sun Tzu had better watch his back. Greene . . . has put together a checklist of ambitious behavior. Just reading the table of contents is enough to stir a little corner-office lust." New York magazine "Beguiling . . . literate . . . fascinating. A wry primer for people who desperately want to be on top." People magazine "An heir to Machiavelli's Prince . . . gentler souls will find this book frightening, those whose moral compass is oriented solely to power will have a perfect vade mecum." Publishers Weekly "Satisfyingly dense and . . . literary, with fantastic examples of genius power-game players. It's The Rules meets In Pursuit of Wow! with a degree in comparative literature."

Great book
Like a compendium on the thoughts and actions of histories great thinkers and leaders. Nothing else like it out there. Read it for the first time 10 years ago, and just ordered it again. Good for a one time read, but better to read through once and keep as a reference book. Highly recommend!!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Very great idiology for success in life.
This book not only teaches the reader strategies for obtaining power within society and relationships but also informs of the strategies needed to prevent others from gaining power over you. Filled with accounts of world leaders, generals, writers, and other historical accounts this book not only states the Laws of Power, but gives examples of the adherence, with positive affect, contrasted to ignoring the Laws resulting in devastation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Instruction manual for sociopaths/psychopaths. Your mileage may vary.
Can only get so far in life being honest? You ever wondered how you got back stabbed at work, swindled by a salesman, or screwed by Brandon Letsgo, this book will show you some of their techniques. Shows the dark side humanity so it was a tough read for me. Lots of small history lessons that jump around through the centuries without being connected.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
