Review: The Prince

The Prince by Niccolò Machiavelli
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Leaders world over (from politicians to CEOs) would certainly benefit from reading this, more than the average reader - a group which I certainly belong to. Since, for literary purposes, so as to speak, it drags and sometimes repeats itself a bit.
Among the true leadership guidelines outlined here are true case studies pointing out whether the leader in question (ie, the prince) actually did the right or wrong thing. The best though is reserved for the end - which keeps you finally turning pages eagerly in order to get quick to its outcome - which is also the book's own.
