About This Book
"Learning the game of power requires a certain way of looking at the world, a
shifting of perspective," writes Robert Greene. Mastery of one's emotions and
the arts of deception and indirection are, he goes on to assert, essential. The
48 laws outlined in this book "have a simple premise: certain actions always
increase one's power ... while others decrease it and even ruin us."
The laws cull their principles from many great schemers--and scheming
instructors--throughout history, from Sun-Tzu to Talleyrand, from Casanova to
con man Yellow Kid Weil. They are straightforward in their amoral simplicity:
"Get others to do the work for you, but always take the credit," or "Discover
each man's thumbscrew." Each chapter provides examples of the consequences of
observance or transgression of the law, along with "keys to power," potential
"reversals" (where the converse of the law might also be useful), and a single
paragraph cleverly laid out to suggest an image (such as the aforementioned
thumbscrew); the margins are filled with illustrative quotations. Practitioners
of one-upmanship have been given a new, comprehensive training manual, as
up-to-date as it is timeless.
