How to Use Your Enemies

by Baltasar Gracian

  

€ 4.99 

ISBN: 9780141398273

'Better mad with the crowd than sane all alone'

In these witty, Machiavellian aphorisms, unlikely Spanish priest Baltasar Gracian shows us how to exploit friends and enemies alike to thrive in a world of deception and illusion.
