Description
The New Machiavelli is a gripping account of life inside ”the bunker” of Number 10. In his twenty-first century reworking of Niccolo Machiavelli”s influential masterpiece, The Prince, Jonathan Powell – Tony Blair”s Chief of Staff from 1994 – 2007 – recounts the inside story of that period, drawing on his own unpublished diaries.
Taking the lessons of Machiavelli derived from his experience as an official in fifteenth-century Florence, Powell shows how these lessons can still apply today. Illustrating each of Machiavelli”s maxims with a description of events that occurred during Tony Blair”s time as Prime Minister, The New Machiavelli is designed to be The Prince for modern times.
