Summary |
The Prince is a classic work of political philosophy by famous political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli. A phrase often associated with this work is "the ends justify the means." In other words, Machiavelli believed that acts of cruelty or lawbreaking were justifiable if the purpose of such acts was to advance one's own power and chances of survival. The adjective "Machiavellian" refers to behaving in a way that aligns with Machiavelli's philosophy. To this day, Machiavelli's philosophy is controversial. Whether you're a scholar or lover of philosophy classics, look no further than this edition of The Prince. If you're seeking high quality audio, crisp narration, and unabridged excellence at a bottom-dollar price, then you are in the right place. Do not take my word for it- go ahead and listen to the free audio sample and make your own decision. Listen with caution, dear reader, and try not to apply the philosophy of Niccolò Machiavelli to your everyday life. |
