 Vapid self-help for the feckless Nov 05, 2009
Really, what else need be said? Just another vapid motivational self-help book.
About all that can be said in its favor is that it's cheaper than one of those multi-$1000 empowerment seminars that suckers go to, and that it's less dangerous than a half-baked New Age yuppie sweat lodge that kills people.
 Empowering, Entertaining, and Informative Oct 20, 2009
This is Robert Greene's seminal text on influence. He takes readers on an enriching journey through history as he describes each component of power. The book is well researched, well organized and for the most part, easy to read. You can start anywhere in the book or read it cover to cover. My only complaint is its dubious morality, but I suppose that something the readers themselves must bring.

Review Oct 19, 2009
This transaction was great! I received my book just as described and in reasonable time.
Great But Missing Important laws! Oct 18, 2009
Great book to bring to light some obvious laws of power and some overseen. Looks like the author used the missing law of power which is having professional vocabulary. But the author tells you laws at the start of each chapter then elaborates by going into a story of history explaining the law. But I recommend the book its a good read!

 Hmm.. Oct 17, 2009
This is one of those books that contains substantial truth, but shouldn't be treated as gospel. For example, there is the chapter on 're-inventing yourself' where he advises you to do everything you can to seem larger than life.
The example he gives for this chapter is the one of Julius Ceasar, who kept the people entertained with extravagant arena games and so forth.
Of course, as the author himself points out, Julius Ceasar ended up dead.
And that's the problem. As the author himself admits, these 'rules' can certainly backfire and, many would argue, almost always do.
