Publisher's Summary

Known as the “father of modern political theory”, Machiavelli served as a diplomat of Italy for 14 years. The Prince has inspired many politicians and humble beings alike all around the world to understand the finer details of diplomacy. The book transposes traditional ways of linking political theory with moral ethics and law. 

According to Machiavelli, a prince must consider the practical implications of a particular situation before reacting to or acting on a situation. This book helps its listeners understand the ways of diplomacy by delving into real-life examples of contrasting situations between idealistic and realistic scenarios and discusses the outcome. These are learnings that a listener can use at all levels of one's life.

Great

The story is nice. Many quotes emerge. Lovely sensible sayings and funny subtle humour. Loved the book. However the reading / narration could have been better
