Amoral, inmisericorde, despiadada y, sobre todo, muy instructiva, esta incisiva obra concentra tres mil años de historia del poder en cuarenta y ocho leyes claras y concisas. Robert Greene detalla las leyes del poder en su esencia más cruda, sintetizando el pensamiento de Maquiavelo, Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz y otros grandes teóricos y estrategas. Algunas leyes sugieren la prudencia (“Ley n° 1: nunca le haga sombra a su amo”); otras, el sigilo (“Ley n° 3: disimule sus intenciones”); otras más, una total falta de piedad (“Ley n° 15: aplaste por completo a su enemigo”).
