Pros: Enlightening and incisive
Cons: Many do not wish to do the thinking required to digest these concepts
The Bottom Line: The Prince is a classic that revolutionized political thought. As relevant today as it ever was.
Review: The Prince (1513) Never do an enemy a minor injury. Niccolo Machiavelli Niccolo Machiavelli (1469 - 1527) was a renaissance man and the first modern political thinker on record. A commoner, Machiavelli hitched his star to the ...

Pros: Get into the realistic side of life
Cons: You require a great lot of patience to read it
The Bottom Line: Read it if you are interested in politics, but bear in mind this ain't no entertaining book.
Review: This is no entertaining book. It teaches a lot, but it does not entertain. More kind of essay than anything else. It was written by the so highly commented Macchiavelli. Most of Macchiavelli's writings are known for their lack of morality and 'The ...

Pros: Clear deep thoughts, well written
Cons: hard to understand
Review: Although the writing and terms used in this book are sometimes hard to reference to everyday life, look a little deeper. Niccolo Machiavelli, who's life spanned from 1469-1527, focused on the powers around him. His beliefs centered on how to rule ...

Pros: Amazing words, style unlike anything else, mind blowing
Cons: Not to easy to read, hard to understand...
Review: Words can not describe how much a genius Machiavelli was. I am half way into "The Prince", and every day that i begin to read it, more and more do i feel smarter. The style and words in this book are just undescribable. Truly the book for kings, as it ...

|
Pros: A fascinating look into leadership and power
Cons: Short, informative and entertaining as it is, it is difficult to find cons.
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend "The Prince" for both the professor and the layman. It is concise and informative and helps us understand the world around us.
Review: Perhaps it is fair to call Nicollo Machiavelli a teacher of the tyrants. After all, this early sixteenth century book has long served as a reference guide to the likes of Hitler and Mussolini, despots who ruled with an iron fist and unmitigated ...

Machiavelli's The Prince |
|||
|
Pros: Short.
Cons: Socially and personally irrelevant to 99% of us.
The Bottom Line: Read this book if you really dig medieval political history. If you don't, then don't.
Review: A recent acquisition of a collection of classics afforded me the opportunity to read The Prince. I had thought this would be interesting, having been impacting enough to have spawned a word to our language. The only impact the book had on me was a ...
