The 48 Laws of Power pdf, epub
Author(s): Robert Greene; Joost Elffers
Publisher: Penguin Books, Year: 2000
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 a book that *People* magazine called “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers distill three thousand years of power history into 48 essential laws. They draw on the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl von Clausewitz, as well as the lives of influential figures like Henry Kissinger and P.T. Barnum.
Some laws emphasize the importance of prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), while others highlight the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”). Many laws advocate for absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Despite their diversity, every law shares a common theme: an interest in total domination. Presented in a striking two-color package, *The 48 Laws of Power* is ideal for anyone seeking conquest, self-defense, or simply a deeper understanding of the rules of the game.
