The prince

Machiavelli’s treatise on the manipulation and exercise of power is surely a work that most have heard of but few have read. His texts present the strategies that some of history’s most infamous rulers have borrowed to achieve their goals – strategies that we can still see in play today with the most dangerous politicians of our time. This compact and cloth-bound edition of this classic work is perfect for anyone interested in the theories of leadership and power. Machiavelli’s work is more enduring and popular than ever before, and this book shows why he is considered the father of political science and philosophy.
