Before Mastery, came The 48 Laws of Power βthe New York Times bestseller that started it all
Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, The 48 Laws of Power is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control. In the book that People magazine proclaimed βbeguilingβ and βfascinating,β 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 (βLaw 1: Never Outshine the Masterβ), others teach the value of confidence (βLaw 28: Enter Action with Boldnessβ), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (βLaw 15: Crush Your Enemy Totallyβ). 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.
