Book Description | “Machiavelli has a new rival. And Sun Tzu had better watch his back. Greene. . . has put together a checklist of ambitious behavior. Just reading the table of contents is enough to stir a little corner-office lust.”―New York magazine “Beguiling. . . literate. . . fascinating. A wry primer for people who desperately want to be on top.”―People magazine “Heir to Machiavelli’s Prince. . . Gentler souls will find this frightening book, those whose moral compass is oriented solely to power will have a perfect vade mecum.” ―Publishers Weekly “Satisfyingly dense and . . . Literary, with fantastic examples of genius power-game players. It's The Rules meets In Pursuit of Wow! with a degree in comparative literature.”―Allure |
