With this guide, you can quickly find the relevant section of the Prince that deals with the research you are conducting. I definately recommend it for students who like to leave essays to the last minute.

One minor detail - the analysis is very general and pretty shallow, you're better off doing that part yourself.

Don't waste your time with this cheat sheet. Read the real book. Become enlightened. It's excellent and I can't seem to understand why people would want to cheat themselves out of such powerfull knowledge.
