Robert Greene summaries

2 summaries on Durar

Robert Greene is known for drawing lessons about power and human nature from history, retelling the stories of rulers, courtiers, generals and con artists from ancient China to the courts of Europe, and his books are worth your time because they help you see the motives behind what people say and do. Start with The 48 Laws of Power, the book that made his name, and read it less as a manual for gaining power than as a way to recognize manipulation and protect yourself from it; then turn to The Daily Laws, which breaks his ideas into short reflections that build self-control and discipline. Managers, entrepreneurs and young professionals across the region who deal with office politics, family businesses and negotiations will find in them a clearer way to read situations and keep their composure.
