This book teaches you about your "Power" and how to recognize it in everything you do, especially your profession. It teaches you humility and humbleness and how powerful that is when it's applied. I have two other books in this series and am in the process of reading them all. This particular book does not need to be read cover to cover. You can read on the "48 Laws" as they interest you, not only as the book is written.

This book is filled with cunning strategies and easily adoptive techniques. I can't apply all of them to my daily life (Jesus wouldn't have it), but for the most part, this is the tool I use to stay ahead of the curve...

When you finish reading this book, and assuming you've assimilated the concepts it conveys, you'll gain a new perspective on political speeches and you'll start noticing how certain mainstream media outlets work to reprogram you. It will help you resist this reprogramming.

it is an important read for us to stay relevant in what we do. It doesn't help to be a good person and end up being thrown under the bus unknowingly, this book will help you detect patterns of people who believe in such philosophies so you can deal with them differently. In order to be a good person, you must be more cunning than the baddies so that you could out maneuver them.

This is an interesting read and I enjoyed it. This book is not for everyone and I can understand the one star reviews. However, it is the world we live in unfortunately and sometimes one must behave in a manner that others find detestable to get ahead. I will buy again if needed.
