Las 48 leyes del poder [Paperback]

Amoral, merciless, ruthless, and above all, instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller combines three thousand years of the history of power into forty-eight clear and concise laws. Robert Green details the laws of power in the rawest sense, synthesizing the thoughts of Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz and other great theorists and strategists. This is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control.
 
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”).
