What is Machiavelli's famous book?

Question asked by: mrquestion

Asked on: 19 Jan 2010

Machiavelli wrote a book called the Prince which is basically a book in which he discusses how someone should act if they wish to achieve success in the form of power.

It is an unusual book in that many of the qualities and methods that are endorsed are not those that would be considered virtuous but rather those that will lead to achievement of the Prince's goals.
