Niccol Machiavelli's The Prince is the Bible of realpolitik, a tough-minded, pragmatic handbook on how power really works, and how to hold on to it in a dangerous world. How can a leader be strong? Is it better to be feared than loved? This work of a fifteenth-century Florentine diplomat is still read today for its shrewd political lessons.
