The Prince (Collins Classics)
English
By (author): Musharraf Hussain Niccolo Machiavelli
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.
We have declared before that it is not only expedient but necessary for a prince to take care his foundations be good, otherwise his fabric will be sure to fail.
Considered one of the first works of modern philosophy, Machiavellis The Prince is an intense study on the nature of power and the course it should take when ruling a country and expresses the authors strong and unyielding ideals and beliefs on using force rather than law to achieve your aims.
Responsible for the widely-used phrase Machiavellian, with all of its negative connotations, his extreme treatise remains a classic text to this day.
