A collection of three texts that explain how to survive and thrive in a business world of suspicion and envy, strategic alliances and brutal misinformation. The texts consist of Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince, Alistair McAlpine's The Servant, and Sun Tzu's The Art of War.The Art of War, like The Prince, offers guidance to the commander in charge. The Servant instructs those working under the leader - the soldiers or attendants, whose techniques and devices must be even more covert and decisive.

Machiavelli's The Prince described a code of conduct for political leaders. In this book McAlpine explores the relationship between the modern business leader and his, or her, employees and shareholders. The chapters elucidate the unchanging, key aspects of politics and business, from flattery and loyalty, craftiness and control, starting a business, and creating the company image. The result is a guide to the nature of politics and power in a world of suspicion and envy, strategic alliances, and ruthless misinformation.
