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 . This is the only authorized paperback edition in the US. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” 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 (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). 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. Review: 48 Laws of Power. - One of the best books. Review: Good to read - Highly recommend

Received in rough condition
After my previous order was randomly cancelled I received my order the second time. The condition of this book doesn’t look new as the cover is faded in some areas but shows the most on the spine of the book as well as creases. The pages are folded in some spots as well but overall it’s fine I guess. I look forward to reading this today after the long wait…

Book review after purchase
One of the most interesting reads on the power dynamics and plays. It is a great book indeed for those who want to understand the game of power around them, and the tactics most often played by those who seeks to dominate and influence their surroundings.

Review
I purchased this book not that much excited of its content. Reading the first few chapters, i have come to the reliazation that the things we do intuitively are parts of the bigger game of power. The game is there even you dont see it. It is better to be awakened than blind. Most controlling people might say that this book has nothing to offer etc etc. If you are genuinely a good person with good intention this book is for you. Save yourself some future hustle in the alleys of power and control. Best one of my purchases 2021.

A book to be read multiple times.
Every one of us secretly desire to hold Power.As human beings we always wish to have our way and expect other’s to follow us and holding power is the best means in having our way.It instills fear or awe in others,making most of the job easier, and the great feeling of wow! — as nothing can be more stronger or powerful .The 48 laws of Power by Robert Greene is all about gaining Power by various means and enjoying its fruits .The laws are defined by taking key points from the ancient past to that of the modern day world, where the laws mentioned are followed by various references to the people who attained power through different means viz fighting wars,ruling ruthlessly,conning successfully,leaving a mark of their own through painting,writing and so on.These references help to understand the laws of gaining power in different ways as well as act as a tip to the readers in guarding against falling prey to scams and tricks.The laws while dwelling deep in to the human nature,brings out various aspects of manipulation,selfishness,deceit,treachery,back stabbing,masking the real intent ,conning,tricking and many more things.These laws act as a tool in understanding the mind games being played in different situations at different places by different people.On hindsight when I look into my past,I personally felt the laws giving me the clarity,much to my satisfaction and perhaps may aid in my future decisions.The stories like that of Arnold and Slack (P158,L21) or Sheriff Richard’s and Lustig (the conman (P74,L9))are not only informative but much fun to read.and laugh. A book that increases your knowledge of power,subtle actions of the people around and their nuanced meaning behind it.Ultimately though the laws reflect individuals personal benefit and even show the ‘basic instincts’ , of humans in seeking power but also enrich the readers with knowledge of power I.e the power to see through the masked faces of others and act .A book that fills the reader’s with admiration and respect for the writer for the enormous amount of information and the profound meaning behind each law. A ‘must-read’, book to be read multiple times to understand the Power. and finally,quoting one of my favourite quote mentioned in the book (L19,pg-138) — “When you meet a swordsman.draw your sword.Do not recite poetry to one who is not a poet.

very good
Great book and definitely worth reading. It’s interesting, easy to get into, and gives a lot to think about when it comes to people, power and strategy. Some parts are a bit intense, but overall it’s a really engaging read and a good book to have on the shelf. Definitely worth 5 stars.
