The 48 laws of power could appropriately be renamed "The sociopath's guide to success". One of the most coniving and destructive books I've read. To be fair, I stopped at law 18, so I shouldn't say I've read the whole thing.

I wouldn't recommend the book to anyone on how to conduct yourself, but there is a small benefit to reading it: you'll begin to identify those around you that subscribe to this way of doing business, and it will help you avoid falling into their traps.

The #1 New York Times bestseller. More than 2 million copies sold!

Look for Brené Brown's new podcast, Dare to Lead, as well as her ongoing podcast Unlocking Us!

From thought leader Brené Brown, a transformative new vision for the way we lead, love, work, parent, and educate that teaches us the power of vulnerability.


"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; . . . who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly."—Theodore Roosevelt

Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on twelve years of pioneering research, Brené Brown PhD, MSW, dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.

Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity. She writes: "When we shut ourselves off from vulnerability, we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives."

Daring Greatly is not about winning or losing. It's about courage. In a world where "never enough" dominates and feeling afraid has become second nature, vulnerability is subversive. Uncomfortable. It's even a little dangerous at times. And, without question, putting ourselves out there means there's a far greater risk of getting criticized or feeling hurt. But when we step back and examine our lives, we will find that nothing is as uncomfortable, dangerous, and hurtful as standing on the outside of our lives looking in and wondering what it would be like if we had the courage to step into the arena—whether it's a new relationship, an important meeting, the creative process, or a difficult family conversation. Daring Greatly is a practice and a powerful new vision for letting ourselves be seen.

It's one of my favorite books!

It is a great guide to prepare yourself for manipulative toxic people as well as a good history lesson.

Daring Greatly is one of my favorites. Her other book, Rising Strong, is the book I wish I could give to the world, but she already has! The Audible books read by Brené are also well done. Her podcasts mentioned by another slickdealer above, often have good book recommendations (she often interviews authors and thought leaders). Sometimes they're kinda rambley or disjointed. Generally worth my time tho.

I think you will be very pleased. There are some significant differences from the films, but it also adds so much texture to the story. Reading the book made me appreciate the films so much more, because the films have these little moments that are full subplots in the book. Huge respect to Coppola for including them, almost like little easter eggs.
