He outlines quite quickly and efficiently the best way for a single being, not elected or appointed, to rule with the least amount of strife. If anything, given that there will always be Monarchs and Tyrants, Machiavelli's treatise on politics should be seen more as an option as opposed to neglecting your people or killing them or causing them more harm. <BR/><BR/>Not to mention there's good weight behind the argument that Machiavelli didn't believe a bit of the Prince. Yet it's still valid philosophy.litrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647103140113105609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180154166609032880.post-64532212801566324082008-01-09T11:45:00.000-06:002008-01-09T11:45:00.000-06:00As a counter offer, here is an even better (i.e. n...As a counter offer, here is an even better (i.e. non sociopath) book, which everyone can access as it is in e-book form; it is by Emma Goldman:<BR/><BR/>http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/2162Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180154166609032880.post-48496747485796394692008-01-08T21:32:00.000-06:002008-01-08T21:32:00.000-06:00PS: Morgy Scary Toooo + Shy (unless drunk).

All my close friends already own the book. <BR/><BR/>And yeah, you're free to have it. And public places in broad daylight are fine. I look kind of scary anyway. Though I'm liable to scamper and flee should you make any sudden movements. I'm awfully shy. <BR/><BR/>But consider the book yours, unless you decide against. I'll even like ... personalize it. So when I'm a famous author you can be like "He slummed me this cheap book, see!?" and people will Oooh and Aaaah. <BR/><BR/>=D <BR/><BR/>Lemme know about hashing out details. It's a fun little book, worth reading.litrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647103140113105609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180154166609032880.post-13729215672052081352008-01-07T22:45:00.000-06:002008-01-07T22:45:00.000-06:00This is just Morgetron bait.
