The Art of Seduction : Machiavelli in Modern times
By: Forest Date: May 20, 2019, 6:28 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Have you read this book? This book was a great bestseller by
Robert Green, and lots of people have read this book all around
the world.<The Art of Seduction> is an unparalledly excellent in
analysis of how to capture the minds of others or to gain
absolute power.
The power of seduction is stronger than physical power and works
secretly and quietly under the water. A person who gains others'
heart and bring opponents to his knees with heart is the man who
has a true power.
The power of temptation comes not from objective beauty, but
from the ability to grasp and control the other person's heart.
It is not a ephysical power to oppress someone. The fascinating
power that makes you surrender with heart is more powerful.
It can be applied to politics or business.
It is because politicians need to "entice" voters and businesses
have to "attract" consumers.
For me, the most interesting thing in the book is the diverse
types of tempters in the history.The tempters types are all
fascinating. What type of seducer is the most attractive for
you?

"It teaches the essentials of being a sociopath. I tried to view
the material from all angles. The truth is that if you try to
view it from a different angle, philosophically or otherwise,
you are kidding yourself. This book is pure manipulation and
while employing the strategies could very well work, you should
always ask yourself...at what cost? There are two roads you can
travel down to get what you want. There is this road, or there
is the road of improving yourself and being the amazing man
women want without sacrificing your integrity or moral values. I
personally decided I would not corrupt my true character. Make
your own decision on whether to read/follow, but always note the
consequences. There are much better roads than this one."
(direct quote from an am*zon review)
Fascinating! Sounds like just the ticket! I'll get back to you
once I've read it. ;D

Talking about Manuals, I prefer Ovid’s « Art of Love »

I'm not surprised at such reviews that stick to one-way
moralism.Separate seduction with morality once, and try to open
your mind to the value of this book.In many cases, narrow-minded
moralism comes from confirmation bias, and it is stubborn and
silly as much as ignorant nationalists and chauvinists.
According to the author, those who criticize tempters for morals
and conscience are just jealous because of lack of ability
themselves.(Indeed, I have witnessed it in real world.)
Andy Warhol, Elisabeth I, S. Freudt are a seducer type of cold
narcissist, and femme fatal type are Cleopatra, Marilyn Monroe,
Paulina Bonaparte. Playboy type seducers are including Don Juan,
Byron and Evis Presley. Napoleon, Rasputin, Lenin, Eva Peron and
Malcolm X are Charisma type.For sure, we have been fascinated
with those people. Why do the moralists deny it? What attractive
personalities! We should ignore those interesting people due to
boring moralism?

Thank you for the information on the book, Sofia.
I'm very interested in digging complicated significances and
symbols in Greek-Roman myth. I'm trying to read the book. It
looks like fun.
