  • We could all use one.

    The things that we already know are set in words and expanded upon, easy to memorize and use when one sees fit. On the physical side, great size for the most convenient pocket.

  • The 48 Laws Of Power.

    This great little concise edition cuts straight to the point. All frills left out. This book definitely suits anyone interested in accessing power. The chapters are paralleled with historical parables, these help to stretch the scope of the book and in a sorts strengthen the argument being made. I’m glad I found Robert Greene. Want some power? Get this wonderful little book.

  • What I found especially engaging is the ...

    What I found especially engaging is the way Greene breaks down each law with a rich blend of history and storytelling, making abstract concepts easy to understand and practical. It’s not just a book about gaining power but also about understanding it and using it responsibly.

  • This book can show you how to use manipulation and other deceptive psychological tools to potentially get the power / position you seek. It is written

    This book can show you how to use manipulation and other deceptive psychological tools to potentially get the power / position you seek. It is written fairly well, and the aesthetic of the page layouts (red text providing related information on the sides, and compactness of the main content) is pretty nice too. If you follow this book as a guide of sorts, my guess is that it will lead you to an awfully empty life, but you might get what you now think you need, so choose wisely.

  • Great little book on human behaviour

    This is a great easy read giving wisdom and insight into the psychology of human behaviour in different circumstances. I've read a couple of Robert Greene's books and depending on your life experience you almost feel he is talking to you.
