READER REVIEW FROM AMAZON.COM
Before the 48 Laws of Power and 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, the King of ancient Persia had the foresight to memorialize the lessons he wanted his son to learn, and "To the Prince of Persia" is a great collection of this father's wisdom with lessons that still find relevance in our lives today. This book will easily sit in anyone's library alongside Sun Tzu's Art of War.
