Recommendation
While other philosophers, such as Rousseau, wrote in soaring prose about the virtues of noble and civilized humanity, Niccolò Machiavelli wrote – 500 years ago – about politics and human treachery. Author Stacey Vanek Smith updates ruthless strategic advice from Machiavelli’s The Prince for women navigating the cutthroat landscape of the male-dominated workplace and seeking to defend or even expand their territory. She packs her book with practical, actionable guidance. Smith is candid about the obstacles women face and equally realistic about the best ways for women to fight past the barricades to survive and thrive while building a career they love.
