Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions

Law 10: Infection: Avoid the Unhappy and Unlucky

48 Laws Of Power: Explained

This one's all about knowing your place.  Don't try to be the smartest person in the room, especially if you work for someone else.  Let your boss take the credit, and you'll be seen as a valuable asset, not a threat.  It's like being a good teammate – you play your role, and everyone wins.

Law 7: Get Others to Do the Work for You, But Always Take the Credit

Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature. In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum.   Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in total domination. In a bold and arresting two-color package, The 48 Laws of Power is ideal whether your aim is conquest, self-defense, or simply to understand the rules of the game.
