Power Without Apologies
“I believe that the last thing the mature seeker needs in literature or talks today are chin-stroking ideas or ‘insights.’ The seeker requires power. Power—not force—to see through self-expressive wishes. Force dissipates and dies with its user. True power is generative: it creates and builds.”
With this trenchant introduction, scholar of esotericism Mitch Horowitz presents some of the most important and practical works, from history and today, on attaining and wielding ethical power.
The Book of Power includes:
- The Art of War by Sun Tzu, translated by British sinologist Lionel Giles
- Crystalizing Public Opinion by Edward Bernays
