The 48 Laws of Power Book Description

Drawn from 3,000 years of the history of power, this is the definitive guide to help readers achieve for themselves what Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, Louis XIV and Machiavelli learnt the hard way. The text is bold and elegant, laid out in black and red throughout and replete with fables and unique word sculptures. The 48 laws are illustrated through the tactics, triumphs and failures of great figures from the past who have wielded - or been victimised by - power Some play with power and lose it all by a fatal mistake. Some go too far or not far enough. And yet others make all the right moves and are able to draw power unto themselves with an almost superhuman dexterity. Throughout the ages, writers and philosophers have asked themselves: what are the lessons to be learned from the successes and failures of our predecessors? Although the various writings on power span a period of more than three thousand years, common threads and themes are repeated.
