      From the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power comes the definitive new book on decoding the behavior of the people around you. This is the only authorized paperback edition in the US. Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense.

    • This concise version of the business classic Mastery provides a shortcut to Greene's powerful new tools for achieving greatness. Around the globe, people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the rules - and then change them completely. Charles Darwin began as an underachieving schoolboy, Leonardo da Vinci as an illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies in a 'rigorous apprenticeship': they learnt to master the 'hidden codes' which determine ultimate success or failure. Then, they rewrote the rules as a reflection of their own individuality. Drawing on interviews with world leaders, this book builds on the strategies outlined in The 48 Laws of Power to provide a practical guide to greatness - and learn how to start living by your own rules.

    • Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. This is the only authorized paperback edition in the US. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum. Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.

    • Amoral, inmisericorde, despiadada y, sobre todo, muy instructiva, esta incisiva obra concentra tres mil años de historia del poder en cuarenta y ocho leyes claras y concisas. Robert Greene detalla las leyes del poder en su esencia más cruda, sintetizando el pensamiento de Maquiavelo, Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz y otros grandes teóricos y estrategas. Algunas leyes sugieren la prudencia ("Ley n° 1: nunca le haga sombra a su amo"); otras, el sigilo ("Ley n° 3: disimule sus intenciones"); otras más, una total falta de piedad ("Ley n° 15: aplaste por completo a su enemigo"). Pero, nos guste o no, todas tienen aplicaciones en la vida cotidiana. Ilustradas mediante anécdotas de Isabel II, Henry Kissinger, P.T. Barnum y otras figuras que han esgrimido el poder (o que lo han padecido), estas leyes fascinarán a cualquiera que se interese en todas las manifestaciones del control total.

      25 Jahre „Power“, weltweit über eine Million verkaufte Exemplare: Das muss gefeiert werden! Diese limitierte Sonderausgabe präsentiert den Machiavelli des 21. Jahrhunderts in besonders edler Ausstattung. Kompakt und einprägsam formuliert dieses Buch 48 Gesetze, die Sie nach oben bringen – oder vor dem Absturz bewahren. „Power“ spitzt die Machtfrage zu: Wer glaubt, dass ihn die Gesetze der Macht nicht interessieren müssten, kann morgen ihr Opfer sein. Wer behauptet, Macht sei auch auf sanftem Weg zu erreichen, hat von der Wirklichkeit keine Ahnung. Und darf man sich mit moralischen Skrupeln aufhalten, wenn man Macht erlangen will? Wer die Menschen verstehen will, muss die Gesetze der Macht kennen, wie sie sich von den frühesten Kulturen bis heute auf der ganzen Erde entwickelt haben.

      Das Spiel mit der Macht liegt in der Natur des Menschen. Die einen kämpfen um die Macht, andere verteidigen ihre Macht, wieder andere wollen sich vor ihr schützen oder das Spiel um die Herrrschaft einfach nur kenntnisreich beobachten. Robert Greene hat eine ungewöhnliche, provozierende Enzyklopädie verfaßt und alle Spielregeln der Macht zusammengestellt, die immer und überall gelten. Von Clausewitz bis Mao-Tse-tung, von Machiavelli bis Brecht - historische und literarische Beispiele aus allen Zeiten und Ländern zeigen, wie sich die Einhaltung oder Übertretung der 48 definitiven Gesetze auswirkt. Ob in der Politik, im Beruf oder in der Liebe: Power ist die Kunst, souverän mit den Verführungen und Gefahren der Macht zu jonglieren.
