The 48 Laws of Power

This book is a bunch of “laws” backed by one example in history where it worked out in someone's favor. The way it's written makes you feel like the author and everyone he mentions is a snake in the grass. The history examples are like the worst people. Powerful? I guess. But Henry the 8th, Machiavelli, Ivan the terrible, Christopher Columbus are all infamous for bad things.

As a stem girlie, the use of the word law is inaccurate but I guess they took a page from Schrödinger because some laws contradict other laws.
