About the book

According to Niccolo Machiavelli, leaders must always be prepared for change, even in violent and dramatic forms, in order to retain some control of their fate. This incisive text applies the Machiavellian philosophy to U.S. presidents, who must learn how to adapt to these changes and /or alter them in order to excel, or even to survive, politically. This well-researched book divides the time line of the American presidency into six different periods embodying certain rules of behavior, which shift and vary within the political, economic, and international systems from period to period.--back cover
