The 48 Laws of Power

Half of you write on here like your experts of some sort. This author itself is perhaps one of the very best we have ever seen in existence. This book teaches you many things, wise things, positive but also negative things. Things, let me me rephrase that.... Tools we need in today's modern world. As this book goes back to before Christ times to the Roman empire, thru the 1960s when John Gotti ruled the streets with nothing but ruthlessness and fear. Harry Houdini and his outmasterous tricks while fooling everyone, and of course the great Julius Caesar and his incredible reign. Plus and such a treat, this book breaks down each law, also telling stories about the great courteé Nepoleon & of course stories and phrases about the great philosopher Nicolló Machiavelli. Incredible, incredible book this is. My favorite thus far. ( Not allowed in state penitentiaries though) they consider it a weapon.

People are complaining about what this book teaches but they fail to understand that by the time you can read a book like this you've more likely already lived through countless people like the book itself. In my opinion knowledge is power and it never hurts to know and understand. What you learn you can use for the greater good to avoid these people this book teaches. Robert Greene is an awesome writer. Its not just butterflies on this planet. Read this book and be aware of those walking among us and the tactics they use to deceive us. I didn't read the book in hopes that I will learn to deceive. I read the book and instantly remembered moments of people i knew used things against. Maybe if I would of read it sooner I would of understood what their plan was or why they would do things a certain way. Great read. Thankyou ❤️🍺

Reading the sample—looks like "Common Sense: the Book". In seriousness, I already disagree with a few fundamental statements, like "Never waste valuable time... ...on the affairs of others". It seems small-minded to me that the satisfaction or morale (or even optics, ooo) you can get through altruistic acts is entirely meaningless. Does anyone else just feel genuinely good after helping someone else out? I see nothing wrong with it, if the expense isn't too great.
