About this audiobook

The Prince is a political treatise by Machiavelli that is not considered to be representative of the work published during his lifetime, but is the most remembered. The theories in this book describe methods that an aspiring prince can use to acquire the throne, or an existing prince can use to maintain his reign. These theories include defense and military, perceived reputation, generosity, cruelty versus mercy, gaining honors, fortune and a number of other discourses.

8 years ago i had no choice other than to go to my local library and place an order for a copy of this manual, which took 12 weeks! Nowadays just click and pay! It was worth the wait, as it's an incredibly astute, thoughtful and thought-provoking insight, into the human condition!
