Publisher's Synopsis
So, you want to know about power politics? You want a practical guide on how to seize and hold power without idealism? This little book is the one you've been searching for, and it's been the best of its kind since it was first published back in the 16th century. Someone termed Machiavellian is considered to be cunning and duplicitous, but if you want to be a prince, a king, a president or anyone with real power, this concept of the ends justifies the means is what it's all about. Required reading for anyone with an interest in politics or human history. Yes, that means everyone. No personal library is complete without a copy of The Prince.
