The Art of Seduction

An Indispensible Primer on the Ultimate Form of Power

De: Robert Greene

Narrado por: Jeff David

When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections, and enslaved great minds. The Art of Seduction synthesizes the legacies of civilization's greatest seducers - from Cleopatra to JFK - with the philosophies of important intellectuals on the subject, including everyone from Freud to Kierkegaard and Ovid to Casanova, and the classic literature of seduction. Robert Greene identifies the rules of a timeless, amoral game and explores how to cast a spell, break down resistance, and, ultimately, compel a target to surrender. The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer on the essence of one of history's greatest weapons and the ultimate form of power.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[Greene's] literary survey is fascinating." (Booklist)

Thank You Jeff David and Robert Greene

Robert Greene's books are so amazing to me. Ever since I was a young boy seeing my father read The 48 Laws of Power, I've been hooked. I knew there was Power in the world that was not regulated by a dollar. I also realized there was more to people's hearts and minds. These books have given me so much more than I ever expected out of them. I hope you keep it up...

Insane book

This book is crazy. It is much like the 48 laws of power but it does a great job of focussing on power through the use of proper seduction.

The Art is a Science

I have read the book several times and now I have listened the audio book several times as well.
I am always learning something new each time I study 📖

too machiavellian to follow

interesting book with great points but just too manipulative and dark for my taste.

The Seduction

I was captivated by the poignantly intelligent dissemination of seduction and human psychology offered by the author. This book is rather lengthy however and goes into painstaking detail on the subject matter of seduction, therefore I decided to opt for the audiobook over the over 400 pages of print. One caveat to the audiobooks is that listening to the book is not at all enjoyable if you detest the narrator's voice. I chose this audiobook because I knew that I would be able to withstand the voice of the narrator for the totality of the five hours it takes to listen to this. You have been forewarned to preview this before purchase, the narrator's voice is very distinctive, and its likeability can be polarizing. You either love it or you hate it.

I really really really loved this book...

So... this book is pretty awesome. I think everyone should read it. It's weird realizing that I know so little about human nature. This book really opened my eyes. You won't be disappointed. Also, the narrator is the best... The narration pretty much made the experience.

Pretty Interesting

This booked got me interested after reading 48 Laws of Power. It got me thinking about how some steps or characteristics described I already do but unconsciously. How certain strategies that you make not notice you do give certain outcomes.

Awesome History Lesson

From a historical standpoint, wonderful book. I have a lot of information on how to be coy and those who 'perfected' the methods. Not sure that I feel as 'powerful' as I'd like, but gained a great foundation.

Can’t read the Book with this

Seems this version is shortened so it’s only made for you to listen if you planned on reading the book and also listen and follow along it’s not one of those strictly listen while driving running or anything

Learned something!!
