Die Gesetze der menschlichen Natur - The Laws of Human Nature

Robert Greene masterfully makes the wisdom and philosophy of ancient thinkers accessible to millions of readers seeking knowledge, power, and self-improvement. In his new book, he addresses the most important topic of all: the decoding of human drives and motivations, including those of which we are not even aware. Humans are social creatures. Our lives depend on our relationships with others. Understanding why we do what we do provides us with a far more effective tool than any of our talents could. Drawing on the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr., and many others, Greene demonstrates how we can become independent of our own emotions and learn self-control while also developing empathy for others to look beyond their masks. The Laws of Human Nature offers readers unique strategies to achieve and defend their own goals in both professional and personal realms.
