The 48 Laws of Power

[tripleplay]

I see this book and it's various laws being parroted a lot on this forum. Although I was skeptical at first, I am halfway through this book now and finding it an incredibly useful tome. Definately the most amoral self-help book I've ever read, but just filled to the brim with truth.

What I'm curious about is if any of you guys have actually found instances in your life when you have put one of the laws into action and seen its results?

that is the only book you will ever need ot read. that and as a man thinkith.(sp)

I have read the book at least 15 times. My life is bound by it. it's that useful of a book. It applies to work, women, life, family, everything.

I like this book but at first I didn’t. I was a little upset that somebody was telling all my secrets! Most of the stuff in the book I do naturally. I never put it in terms like Greene does but… hey who does?

One thing I find very funny about this book is the fact: People that worship DA always say how great of a book it is, yet they down MM. This book backs up everything within MM. The same people say they like the book because it helps them live up to the DA standards. Since you have read most of the book you know that it completely does the opposite.

If anybody thought Mystery was conniving than they should read Greene’s books. Mystery would look like a saint in comparison.

I like all of Greene’s work and he tells it like it is. Upfront and true to nature.

I've put the boldness law into effect more than once for success.

The laws really work which is what makes this such a great book.

One of the best books ever written in fact I'd say.

I've always liked the first review on Amazon. Somebody clearly trying to use one of the laws!

i'll take it even father... If you read that, read "the prince" as well.. People give Robert Greene all this credit but all he did was rewrite the prince by Machiavelli

Absolutely! Prince is a must read, as well as 33 Strategies of War. I actually went to Barnes and Nobles 3 days ago and bought the paperback of, The 48 Laws of Power. Since I was sick of reading it from a computer screen! I love that book! It has so much GREAT information in it. It's also an entertaining book to read!
