The Prince (Translated by Lin Humanities Selection)
The author of this book lived in an era when Italy was divided and the principalities were at war with each other, and he had a strong yearning for national unity. In the book, the author strips away morality and uses instrumental rationality to dissect politics; he emphasizes strength and the role of the military, and the principles of being a king and governing the country are shocking. Mussolini hailed it as a "politician's pocket guide," while Russell dismissed it as a "villain's manual."
