Story
From his perspective in Renaissance Italy, Machiavelli's aim in this classic work was to resolve conflict with the ruling prince, Lorenzo de Medici. Machiavelli based his insights on the way people really are rather than an ideal of how they should be. This is the world's most famous master plan for seizing and holding power. Astonishing in its candor The Prince even today remains a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince, a king, or a president.

Story
As former tutor and adviser to Emperor Nero, philosopher and statesman Seneca was acutely aware of how short life can be - his own life was cut short when the emperor ordered him to commit suicide (for alleged involvement in a conspiracy). And Seneca proved true to his words - his lifelong avowal to Stoicism enabled him to conduct himself with dignity to the end. During his rich and busy life, Seneca wrote a series of essays that have advised and enriched the lives of generations down to the present day.

Be observational and act.
This book of strategies was an eye opener to the human mind in it ability to think forward to have the best outcomes. It also show when you don't take the time to do think, observe and act how disaster follows.
History has a lesson not matter the person's involved or country.
We are today what came of history and who told it. However now that it is known the future is yours to make it what your observations see fit.

Great for thinkers
What I like most about this book and its counter part the 48 laws of power is the style in which the author delivers a ton of information. The stories he tells are real and are from the lives of many different well known and influential people from different time periods. Its like having someone piece together twenty or thirty biographies of interesting peoples lives and getting just the good parts. I enjoyed 48 laws of power more but the principles in this book make you think a lot. I found myself looking inward and asking myself how I acted in certain social situations in and outside of the work place.
It is a very interesting and well done work!

Very good especially for the history savy
Overall I loved the book. It is written in the traditional Robert Greene fashion, with lots of examples which are repeated in order to prove different points or different stages of a process. I personally love this style as he does not hurry up to draw a conclusion.
However it is packed full of examples from ancient history, and for me personally it would have been better to use more modern day examples. This is why I found myslef wandering of at times and had to rewind. But for someone who loves ancient history this is a 5 star book, no doubt about it. And the voice of the narrator is top notch. Would highly recommend the book to anyone interested in the matter or strategy but be prepared with patience as the book is long and tackles a lot of ideeas and stories.

Impressive array of moves, stories, coaching
This book is very qualitative: it mostly describes possible moves or approaches, in fairly plain terms, to challenging situations, posed as war or conflict, with stories spliced in from history (and occasionally literature) to back each one up. There is not some deep analytical means to opt for one move versus others. Likewise it is not excessive in its humility -- the basic tone is, you can do it. Grasp this, understand this, dare that. (It does, however, counsel a calm, deliberate, self-critical, and self-aware approach.) It thus hits a nice balance, being energizing, but not overly risk-obsessed. I find it very pleasant and uplifting to pass time (as on a commute or a walk-run) letting this endless sort of breeze of coaching tips stream over my ears and mind. I like a book that can stand up to that sort of shifting environment and still be understandable. This is one of those few books I may very well listen to multiple times. I like this author a lot and will check out his other titles.
Alongside more of Napoleon than I ever heard, this author has a great appreciation for east Asian strategies of indirection and seeming retreat or "not-doing." For example, there are ideas of trading space for time, both from European tacticians and Chinese in different eras. There are many great mind-stretchers here along these lines. And how about that Joan Crawford! What a tactician! The author reaches in many unexpected directions and opens vistas and bios I would never have thought of.

Foundations
I read this book many years ago and remember feeling like it would change my life. Having not reviewed it in the many years that passed, I’m amazed by how little i remembered. Between the two readings, there were countless opportunities to capitalize on the wisdom collected here. In fact, I should have read the section on passive-aggression last year.
The strategies are important because there is a very real war for power or influence being waged around us. If you’re like me, you prefer to go through life trying to be the best version of yourself and rely on your integrity to win the day. Unfortunately, we are few and far between. Others are using conscious and unconscious forms of strategy to win the battlefield. We have to be able to recognize their efforts and know how to respond. Otherwise, we lose.
Robert’s analysis of the Vietnam Conflict is spot on. America failed to understand the enemy and their strategy out maneuvered our politicians with public opinion through press coverage, the hamstrung our military forces through political maneuvering, and ultimately crafted a narrative that painted our nation with shame.
Read this book. It’ll open your eyes to strategies at all levels, from marriage to world war.
