About this listen

From the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 48 Laws of Power comes the definitive new audiobook on decoding the behavior of the people around you.

Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of listeners, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding, and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves.

We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense.

Critic reviews

"In this detailed and expansive guide, Greene (Mastery) seeks to … transform the reader into a 'calmer and more strategic observer', immune to 'emotional drama'. Those are lofty promises, but even skeptics will become believers after diving into Greene’s well-organized text. Overcoming the 'law of irrationality', for instance, leads to the ability to 'open your mind to what is really happening, as opposed to what you are feeling'. Greene’s thoughtful examination of self and society will, for the committed reader, deliver a refreshing and revitalizing perspective." (Publishers Weekly)

Get ready for the Red Pill if you dare.
Audible did a wonderful job.
It took me years to switch from holding the book to listening to Audible. I cannot go back.

Very Long

I can’t help but wonder if the author could have gotten his message across in 1/3 the time.
Great performance.

Best Greene's book so far

Each single chapter is worth a book in value.

Good and excruciatingly long

Interesting insights into human nature. I found some insights comforting to know and wanting to know more about others. Description along with story and concussion helped with deeper understanding.
