Summary
When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections, and enslaved great minds. The Art of Seduction synthesizes the legacies of civilization's greatest seducers - from Cleopatra to JFK - with the philosophies of important intellectuals on the subject, including everyone from Freud to Kierkegaard and Ovid to Casanova, and the classic literature of seduction. Robert Greene identifies the rules of a timeless, amoral game and explores how to cast a spell, break down resistance, and, ultimately, compel a target to surrender. The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer on the essence of one of history's greatest weapons and the ultimate form of power.

Good book, but the reader left out so much
So much of the great book was left out by the reader. I have read the paper back version.

language needs updating
I loved the stories and the examples used. I will have to listen to this book again but I wished you used positive associations rather then negative ones. Also, the word 'Victim' should be replaced with 'Target' or 'VIP' as they should be treated as such.

Great book, narrator sucks
Honestly, the book is great with interesting ideas but the narrator absolutely spoils it with weird and creepy sounding emphasis at inappropriate points. It’s a no from me dawg

Thought-provoking book of Robert Greene
Well narrated by Jeff David. The Author Robert Greene should have credited Michel Foucault for his idea of how seduction works in disguise. Foucault had already argued in the last century that power ( here seduction) and the way it operates today is not obvious, direct and or coercive. It is subtle, indirect and persuasive, In this regard, Greene’s idea of seduction can much more be attributed to Foucault. Rest, the book is excellent, thought provoking.
