The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene (high quality)

Robert Greene, a revered guide to millions, has long distilled the wisdom of the ancients and the philosophies of old into vital texts for those in search of power, understanding, and mastery. Now, he turns his focus to the most critical subject of all—comprehending the drives and motivations of people, even when those very individuals remain unaware of them.

As social beings, our lives are intrinsically bound to the relationships we form. Understanding the actions of others is the most invaluable skill we can possess, for without this knowledge, our other talents can only carry us so far. Drawing upon the examples and teachings of historical figures such as Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr., and many others, Greene imparts lessons on how to detach from our own emotional impulses and master the art of self-control. He teaches how to cultivate the empathy that yields insight, how to peer beyond the masks that others wear, and how to resist the forces of conformity in order to forge a unique and purposeful path.

Whether in the realms of work, relationships, or the shaping of the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature provides brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense, guiding you toward a deeper understanding of human behavior and the art of mastery
