Details: There are books, just a few that are legendary and have changed the way the world sees itself, inspiring debate, dissent, or even war. Join us for one of those books, written by one of the world’s greatest and most controversial thinkers, Machiavelli. Rejecting tradition and drawing on his own experiences, Machiavelli has created a disturbingly realistic and prophetic master plan for seizing and holding power, free of ordinary moral and ethical values and coldly logical. Published several years after his death, this provocative book ignited a debate that still rages today; an uncompromising picture of the true nature of political power and a call for fearless and effective action.
