The Concise Mastery

The Concise Mastery

FROM THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING MASTER OF POWER 'Hollywood producers and rappers are following this unlikely but ruthless guru' Sunday Times 'Very good... an enormous number of directed anecdotes from warfare, politics and the arts' Independent on Sunday The perfect pocketbook gift for the power-hungry - from 'the modern Machiavelli', Robert Greene, international bestselling sensation author of The 48 Laws of Power, Seduction and War. This concise version of the business classic Mastery provides a shortcut to Greene's powerful new tools for achieving greatness. Around the globe, people are facing the same problem - that we are born as individuals but are forced to conform to the rules of society if we want to succeed. To see our uniqueness expressed in our achievements, we must first learn the rules - and then change them completely. Charles Darwin began as an underachieving schoolboy, Leonardo da Vinci as an illegitimate outcast. The secret of their eventual greatness lies in a 'rigorous apprenticeship': they learnt to master the 'hidden codes' which determine ultimate success or failure. Then, they rewrote the rules as a reflection of their own individuality. Told through Robert Greene's signature blend of historical anecdote and psychological insight and drawing on interviews with world leaders, Concise Mastery builds on the strategies outlined in The 48 Laws of Power to provide a practical guide to greatness - and learn how to start living by your own rules

Poezii (resigilat)

"Ce înseamnă pentru noi toţi, poezia, literatura şi gândirea politică a lui Eminescu, o ştim, şi ar fi zadarnic s-o amintim încă o dată. Tot ce s-a creat după el, de la Nicolae Iorga şi Tudor Arghezi până la Vasile Pârvan, Nae Ionescu şi Lucian Blaga, poartă pecetea geniului sau măcar a limbii eminesciene. Rareori un neam întreg s-a regăsit într-un poet cu atâta spontaineitate şi atâta fervoare cu care neamul românesc s-a regăsit în opera lui Eminescu. Îl iubim cu toţi pe Creangă, îl admirăm pe Haşdeu, învăţăm să scriem de la Odobescu, îl respectăm pe Titu Maiorescu şi anevoie putem lăsa să treacă mult timp fără să-l recitim pe Caragiale. Dar Eminescu este, pentru fiecare din noi, altceva.

There is balm for the soul, fire for the belly, a cooling compress for the fevered brow, solace for the wounded, an arm around the lonely shoulder - the whole collection is a matchless compound of hug, tonic and kiss' Stephen FrySometimes only a poem will do. These poetic prescriptions and wise words of advice offer comfort, delight and inspiration for all; a space for reflection, and that precious realization - I'm not the only one who feels like this. In the years since he first had the idea of prescribing short, powerful poems for all manner of spiritual ailments, William Sieghart has taken his Poetry Pharmacy around the length and breadth of Britain, into the pages of the Guardian, onto BBC Radio 4 and onto the television, honing his prescriptions all the time. This pocket-sized book presents the most essential poems in his dispensary: those which, again and again, have really shown themselves to work. Whether you are suffering from loneliness, lack of courage, heartbreak, hopelessness, or even from an excess of ego, there is something here to ease your pain. 'The book is delightful; it rightly resituates poetry in relation to its biggest and most serious task: helping us to live and die well' Alain de Botto
