📱 eBook en inglés THE PRINCE

"The ends justify the means."
What does it truly take to win and maintain power? In The Prince, Niccolò Machiavelli strips away the pretenses of "noble" leadership to reveal the ruthless mechanics of governing. Dedicated to Lorenzo de Medici, this work serves as a practical handbook for a new ruler. Machiavelli argues that a successful prince must be as cunning as a fox and as fierce as a lion. He explores the delicate balance of Virtù (the ability of a leader) and Fortuna (the whims of fate), providing timeless—and often shocking—advice on everything from managing advisors to the necessity of strategic cruelty.
Realpolitik at Its Source: Machiavelli was the first to separate politics from traditional Christian ethics. He famously asks whether it is better to be loved or feared, concluding that while being both is ideal, if one must choose, it is "much safer to be feared than loved"—as long as one avoids being hated.
Virtù vs. Fortuna: The novel introduces the groundbreaking concept that a leaders success depends on their ability to adapt their character to the times. A prince must be flexible, prepared to act "against faith, against charity, against humanity" if the survival of the state is at stake.
Why It Is Still Essential: From corporate boardrooms to modern campaign offices, The Prince remains the foundational text for understanding how the world actually works. It is a masterclass in strategy, human psychology, and the uncompromising logic of success.
