THE 48 LAWS OF POWER

If you want the collection of books, 📚 that you read any time, long-lasting so please buy "HARDCOVER" don't buy this normal.. it's little expensive but the quality is much better over this.

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.

I won't be reviewing the contents of the book so much as the quality of the book itself. It is mostly clean and is well bound, which is a plus for how big the book is. The printing is accurate, the quality of the pages is great and the overall finish of the book is refined. However, there are a few blotches of ink here and there in the book but nothing to unreadable. Would recommend 👍

Best book easy to learning

Best book to be read, very interesting!

The short version - This book has to be read with an open mind. This book throws at you the raw and cold rules that have to be followed in the world. This book may question your morals, make you question your values. You may not like this book due to its rawness, but read it with an open mind and you'll find at least 20 laws to apply in your daily life. Read it to understand the dark side of human psychology. Just read it with an open mind, that's all I ask of you. The long version - What can I say about this book. It is actually quite better than I expected. Well, sometimes the laws in this book can be used interchangeably and the examples may become overwhelming, but it is all worth it. The preface of the book itself contains some very profound advice as to how to apply these laws and what all things to know before applying them. The laws mentioned in this book may seem too cold and too bad. But to be on top of the corporate ladder, we have to be ruthless. Because if we are not, the world will swallow us. We have to be prepared for the worst. The book explains the laws in a lucid way. The writing style of the author is pretty smooth and understandable. It is straight forward without any drags or repetitions. The laws may seem too weird or cold to some people, but all you have to do is to be with an open mind and understand the importance and application of each law. This is not that type of book which you read and forget about. This book is the most brutal and straight forward thesis as to live like a king. The main concept present in all the laws is the act of manipulation. Manipulation plays a very important role in applying these laws. The author also uses various important examples and anecdotes from throughout history to brief as to how a specific law was applied. He also tells us when not to use the law. Because during certain circumstances the laws may backfire and may get you into trouble. This book contains a very dangerous set of principles that have to be applied only when the need arises. Sometimes the opposite of the law happens and you may get into trouble. So the laws have to be applied on an intuitive basis, and you must always go with the flow of the situation rather creating the one of your own. On the final note, this book is for those people who wanna rule the world. Who want to be ruthless and cunning. Those leaders who would stop at nothing to achieve what they want. Practice these laws daily and remember them to achieve great things.

Book quality is good

Packaging should be much better, book and pages were distorted/deformed due to mispackagaing. Rest all is fine, font size and book size and content, good for money
