Whether you like it or not, people want power. It's built into our DNA and it's why some people work harder than others, take risks and, yes, manipulate other people to get it.

Power comes in many forms and Greene has laid out in great detail how to get it. It's the dirty secret that no one talks about, yet deep down we know it's true.
How to Use 48 Laws of Power is a Machiavellian treatise for the modern age. It boasts the unique distinction of being quoted by such management luminaries as Jay Z, UGK, Kanye West, and Drake.
This book is amoral, hauntingly true, and indispensable. It should be on the bookshelf of anyone who aspires to any level of success in any organization or profession. It should not gather dust but should be read regularly, according to a plan - one law a day, for example, absorbed slowly and contemplated deeply. Author Robert Greene draws on a rich variety of sources including books so threatening that they were banned by the ancient Chinese. He cites the memoirs of Machiavelli, various con men, and many others who swept aside what ought to be in order to focus on what is. It might seem that anyone who follows all of these laws in their rich, narrative detail will turn out to be a very unpleasant person. That's probably not true. getAbstract suspects, in contrast, that the person who masters the laws of power will be extremely pleasant, with winning ways and a knack for likeability, yet awe-inspiring and in control - though not always obviously so. Doesn't that sound tempting?
With this book, You will learn how to influence people and gain more control over every area of your life. You can read the Summary 48 Laws of Power on the back of the book.
