Practical & Useful

I am not a very frequent reader, however this book was quite enticing. The main reason are, first, its not monotonous or long story based stuff, so you can read in snippets. Second and more importantly it challenges the conventional way of thinking - it talks about real life stuff and stuation handling. However the illustrations from history are bit tough to relate to, but the concepts makes perfect sense, I can claim that it actually helped me to think in an unconventional way.understanding that its more important to react practically than to judge the black and white right or wrong.There are some internal contradictions in certain laws.I will let the readers discover it when they do read this book.but overall this book is a thought provoking piece of literature.


It talks about the way to gain power subtly over people, it harps on the fact it is not worth being the good man in a crowd of bad, it says how u should be more cautious about your friends than your enemy, and how to use your enemy to reap benefit.might seem very unethical.but I will attach the tag practical to it.since the Laws are not continuous and all are listed down at the begining, with detailed example chapterwise, it becomes a good referrence at any stage of your life.
