Sinopsis

"The Art of the Machiavellianist" is an enthralling novel that centres on Joseph, a character deeply influenced by the political philosophies of Niccolò Machiavelli, particularly as outlined in "The Prince." The story begins with Joseph's early exposure to Machiavellian concepts and follows his ascent as he skilfully applies these principles in various spheres of his life.

Joseph, portrayed as a complex figure with a keen understanding of human nature, navigates through challenging scenarios in politics, business, and personal relationships. His journey highlights the practical application of Machiavellian tactics, ranging from subtle manipulations to overt power plays. The novel meticulously details his strategies for gaining influence, controlling outcomes, and safeguarding his interests.

As the plot progresses, the narrative delves into the psychological aspects of Machiavellianism, examining how traits like manipulation, moral flexibility, and a focus on self-interest play out in Joseph's interactions and decisions. The story provides a rich exploration of the psychological underpinnings of this trait and its manifestation in different environments.

A critical aspect of the novel is its exploration of the ethical implications of Machiavellian practices. It engages the reader in a philosophical debate over the morality of Joseph's actions, questioning whether the ends justify the means and the potential moral cost of such tactics on an individual and societal level.

Through various subplots and interactions with other characters, the novel presents real-world parallels, drawing comparisons to historical and contemporary figures known for their Machiavellian tactics. These examples serve to ground Joseph's story in a broader context, offering insights into the pervasive influence of Machiavellianism in modern society.

In conclusion, "The Art of the Machiavellianist" offers a comprehensive, thought-provoking examination of Machiavellianism through the lens of a captivating fictional narrative. It appeals to readers interested in psychology, philosophy, politics, and the intricate dynamics of power and influence.

Through the Magic Door

Arthur Conan Doyle

Through the Magic Door by great mystery writer Arthur Conan Doyle is about Doyle's favorite books and the intelligent minds behind them. Excerpt: "I care not how humble your bookshelf may be, nor how lowly the room which it adorns. Close the door of that room behind you, shut off with it all the cares of the outer world, plunge back into the soothing company of the great dead, and then you are through the magic portal into that fair land whither worry and vexation can follow you no more. You have left all that is vulgar and all that is sordid behind you. There stand your noble, silent comrades, waiting in their ranks."

Göbekli Tepe: The History and...

Editors Charles River

The Neolithic period came before the Bronze Age and is generally regarded as the final subdivision of the Stone Age. During this time, communities domesticated plants and certain animals but still relied on hunting and gathering to a considerable extent, and beginning sometime around 7000 BCE, handmade pottery was developed, along with more advanced stone axes that enabled people to clear vast forests. Thanks to tools like that, the sizes of these Neolithic communities ranged from thousands to as few as a hundred, and they spread across the world with a variety of cultures and languages. One aspect these cultures had in common was that they relied on similar tools made of stone, wood, and bone. 
Despite the fact some Neolithic communities grew to considerable sizes, they’re typically not considered when people think of the first ancient civilizations or the first major cities, so when German archaeologists discovered the archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey in the 1990s, it created an academic firestorm that is still raging. Far from being just another settlement, Göbekli Tepe has been described as the world’s first temple and perhaps one of the locations where human civilization began. Subsequent archaeological work at Göbekli Tepe has revealed that the site was a spiritual center for the local population during a time when humans were undergoing a transition as hunter-gatherers in the Paleolithic Period to a more sedentary lifestyle in the Neolithic Period, more than 10,000 years ago. Further research in the disciplines of anthropology, religion, and history indicate that the activity at Göbekli Tepe subsequently set the tone for elements of Neolithic and Bronze Age religion and ideology in the Near East, especially in Anatolia (roughly equivalent with modern Turkey).
