Nicolo Machiavelli 
The Prince [EPUB ebook] 

The Prince is a classic political treatise written by Niccolò Machiavelli in the 16th century. In this seminal work, Machiavelli explores the complexities of power and governance, offering insightful advice to princes and leaders on how to maintain and strengthen their rule. Using historical examples and a pragmatic approach, he discusses topics such as human nature, virtù (political skill), and fortune (opportunity). While challenging traditional concepts of political morality, The Prince remains an influential work that continues to provoke debates on ethics, politics, and leadership to this day.
