The Will to Power: Human Nature and Politics

The will to power has never been the focus of concentrated in-depth study. Psychologists have not developed the concept and political scientists do not have the psychological knowledge to deal with it. There is therefore a gap in our knowledge concerning this important motivational force. In The Will to Power, Seymour Keitlen outlines an original theory of the will to power, as a major motivational power in the human mind. Attention has been given to complex cultural conditions that are important prerequisites of the display of this drive in different societies at different times.
