The Modern Prince: Better Living Through Machiavellianism

The Modern Prince isn't intended for everyone. It is a provocative and challenging book. It will ask you to reconsider things that you have taken for granted all your life. It will change your view of the human race and human behavior. It will challenge your ideas about life, love, luck, good, evil, hatred, scorn, and loyalty. It will change your view of the men and women around you. It will challenge your idea of yourself. It will tell you that if you wish to change your life for the better, then you must change your self for the better too. It will also tell you how to get what you want and how to keep what you get. This little book of advice is based on another little book of advice, "The Prince," written five hundred years ago by Niccolo Machiavelli. In "The Modern Prince: Better Living Through Machiavellianism," I have imagined how a modern Machiavelli might address similar advice to modern Americans.
