Written in the 16th century, this bold, pragmatic guide to ruling has fascinated-and shocked-readers for centuries. Should a ruler be feared or loved? When is deceit justified? How does one gain and hold power in a ruthless world? Machiavelli answers with unflinching honesty. Whether seen as a manual for tyranny or a reflection of realpolitik, The Prince remains essential reading for understanding politics, power, and human ambition. It's provocative, influential, and disturbingly relevant-even today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.24 x 7.81 x 5.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 17, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68017716887800,"sku":"9789373491622","price":20.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/5629\/7208\/files\/CcMuF_FNi69789373491622.webp?v=1794041468","url":"https:\/\/barneysbooksellers.com\/products\/the-prince-paperback-5","provider":"Barney's Book Sellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
