Description
The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli
His name synonymous with political cunning, Machiavelli worked among the most powerful men in Europe, and in The Prince set down his ideas on how to gain power – and keep it. Iron pragmatism over noble ideals. The ends justify the means. Better to be feared than loved. Condemned as a devil’s treatise, lauded as a handbook for successful statecraft, The Prince is a key work in the field of political science.
