Some of you have probably read Robert Greene's psychological book about how to earn power. Needless to say, we are living during the time when such laws have proven to be ineffective towards gaining a permanent power that won't backfire. The tips and suggestions written in 48 Laws of Power do not necessarily come with how-to-sustain humanity at the same time. From backstabbing to being cunning, the book has over 48 ways to become an annoying member of the community that suck up to the boss all the time. History has shown enough to tell us that while people who do these things rise into power successfully, they are not for long.
