The Art of War & the Prince

This Special Edition of The Art of War & The Prince by Machiavelli unites both of Machiavelli?s volumes on strategy so that the philosophy and mechanisms for obtaining power and managing power may be seen as a single entity. Possessed of a great intellect, Niccolo Machiavelli was uniquely suited to examine and explain the important details of statecraft. Machiavelli, like Plato and Pythagoras and Confucius two hundred odd decades before him, saw only one method by which a thinking man, himself not powerful, might do the work of state building, and that was by seizing the imagination of a Prince. With these writings, he has influenced the history of the world.Other Special Editions in this series that deal with the subject of warfare and strategy include:The Art of War By Sun Tzu - Special EditionThe Art of War By Mao Tse-tung - Special EditionThe Art of War By Baron De Jomini - Special Edition
