      read it about 15 years ago.

      its pretty dark, but presents a lot of interesting points.

      a must read before you pen your own manifesto

              Ordered The Art of War, too. Feel stupid for not having read it yet.

                          Amazon recommended 40 but some of the reviews were pretty sketchy so I passed. Good?

                              Its a great book beleive me, it puts all of the greatest power books like The Prince, Art of war, 5 rings etc. and organizes them into theories and laws. It has tons of references to history and how to use the laws for yourself etc.. It's an amazing book!!! If not for the laws themselves, just for the historic information you learn. Its the best book I've ever read, well its right below 'Paradise Lost' But thats more like a huge poem lol
