Blog postThe time has come to officially announce my fifth book, Mastery.
In early 2007, I had an epiphany. For the previous eleven years I had immersed myself in a study of the most powerful people in history. I had read one biography after another about great political figures, strategists, scientists, artists, and inventors. And on that particular day, as I was reviewing some old material, it finally struck me: all of these people—no matter their field, culture, or moment in history—followe10 years ago Read more -

Titles By Robert Greene
When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections and enslaved great minds. Immerse yourself in the twenty-four maneuvers and strategies of the seductive process, the ritual by which a seducer gains mastery over his target. Understand how to "Poeticize Your Presence," “Keep them in Suspense – What Comes Next” and “Master the Art of the Bold Move”. Every bit as essential as The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer of persuasion that reveals one of history's greatest weapons and the ultimate form of power.
Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves.
We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense.
Each one of us has within us the potential to be a Master. Learn the secrets of the field you have chosen, submit to a rigorous apprenticeship, absorb the hidden knowledge possessed by those with years of experience, surge past competitors to surpass them in brilliance, and explode established patterns from within. Study the behaviors of Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, Leonardo da Vinci and the nine contemporary Masters interviewed for this book.
The bestseller author of The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, and The 33 Strategies of War, Robert Greene has spent a lifetime studying the laws of power. Now, he shares the secret path to greatness. With this seminal text as a guide, readers will learn how to unlock the passion within and become masters.
From the world’s foremost expert on power and strategy comes a daily devotional designed to help you seize your destiny.
Robert Greene, the #1 New York Times bestselling author, has been the consigliere to millions for more than two decades. Now, with entries that are drawn from his five books, plus never-before-published works, The Daily Laws offers a page of refined and concise wisdom for each day of the year, in an easy-to-digest lesson that will only take a few minutes to absorb. Each day features a Daily Law as well—a prescription that readers cannot afford to ignore in the battle of life. Each month centers around a major theme: power, seduction, persuasion, strategy, human nature, toxic people, self-control, mastery, psychology, leadership, adversity, or creativity.
Who doesn’t want to be more powerful? More in control? The best at what they do? The secret: Read this book every day.
“Daily study,” Leo Tolstoy wrote in 1884, is “necessary for all people.” More than just an introduction for new fans, this book is a Rosetta stone for internalizing the many lessons that fill Greene’s books and will reward a lifetime of reading and rereading.
El best seller mundial para los que quieren obtener, estudiar o combatir el poder absoluto.
Amoral, inmisericorde, despiadada y, sobre todo, muy instructiva, esta incisiva obra concentra tres mil años de historia del poder en cuarenta y ocho leyes claras y concisas. Robert Greene detalla las leyes del poder en su esencia más cruda, sintetizando el pensamiento de Maquiavelo, Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz y otros grandes teóricos y estrategas. Algunas leyes sugieren la prudencia ("Ley n° 1: nunca le haga sombra a su amo"); otras, el sigilo ("Ley n° 3: disimule sus intenciones"); otras más, una total falta de piedad ("Ley n° 15: aplaste por completo a su enemigo"). Pero, nos guste o no, todas tienen aplicaciones en la vida cotidiana. Ilustradas mediante anécdotas de Isabel II, Henry Kissinger, P.T. Barnum y otras figuras que han esgrimido el poder (o que lo han padecido), estas leyes fascinarán a cualquiera que se interese en todas las manifestaciones del control total.
Un agudo examen sobre la esencia de la seducción: el modo de influencia más refinadola forma más embriagante del poder.
El encanto, la persuasión, el talento para crear ilusiones: és-tas son tres de las muchas habilidades del seductor, ese individuo irresistible y capaz de manipular, engañar y dar placer a la vez. Llevada a la altura del arte, la seducción ha acabado con imperios, ganado elecciones presidenciales y esclavizado a las mentes más brillantes. En este libro revelador, Robert Greene expone las dos caras del acto seductor: el carácter y el proceso. Por un lado, detalla las nueve clases de personalidad seductora; por el otro, disecciona las veinticuatro maniobras y estrategias que hacen que la víctima caiga rendida. A partir de las ideas de autores como Freud y Kierkegaard, y las historias de figuas como Cleopatra, John F. Kennedy y Andy Warhol, Greene presenta un compendio magistral sobre una de las ar-mas más poderosas de la humanidad.
La naturaleza humana es más fuerte que cualquier individuo, institución o tecnología. Dirige nuestras obras y nos mueve como peones de ajedrez.Ignorarás sus leyes bajo tu propio riesgo.
Como animales sociales, nuestras vidas dependen de las relaciones que forjamos. Por eso no bastan nuestro talento, cono-cimiento y formación: saber por qué la gente hace lo que hace es la herramienta más importante que podemos dominar.
A partir de las ideas de personajes históricos tan diversos como Pericles, Isabel I y Martin Luther King Jr., el celebrado escritor Robert Greene nos enseña cómo controlar nuestras emociones, cómo leer mejor las intenciones de los demás, cómo desarrollar la empatía para servir a nuestros propósitos, cómo ver detrás de las máscaras y cómo modificar nuestros comportamientos negativos.
Las leyes de la naturaleza humana es la obra maestra de un autor que ha comunicado a millones de lectores las enseñanzas de siglos de historia y filosofía. Un tratado indispensable para aprender las mejores tácticas del autoconocimiento, el éxito y la autodefensa.
More than 20,000 hours of research and thought went into Robert Greene's stunning book, Mastery. In a departure from his previous works, Robert Greene interviewed nine contemporary masters, including tech guru Paul Graham, animal rights advocate Temple Grandin, and boxing trainer Freddie Roach, to get their perspective on their paths to greatness. Those interviews are now available to readers for the first time. Interviews with the Masters presents more than 700 pages of revealing insight directly from these contemporary Masters; from how they learn and think, to how they put it all together and create.

Der Mensch ist ein Gesellschaftstier. Sein Leben hängt von der Beziehung zu Seinesgleichen ab. Zu wissen, warum wir tun, was wir tun, gibt uns ein weit wirksameres Werkzeug an die Hand als all unsere Talente es könnten. Ausgehend von den Ideen und Beispielen von Perikles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr und vielen anderen zeigt Greene, wie wir einerseits von unseren eigenen Emotionen unabhängig werden und Selbstbeherrschung lernen und andererseits Empathie anderen gegenüber entwickeln können, um hinter ihre Masken zu blicken.
Die Gesetze der menschlichen Natur bietet dem Leser nicht zuletzt einzigartige Strategien, um im professionellen und privaten Bereich eigene Ziele zu erreichen und zu verteidigen.
