The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene

“People are more complicated than the masks they wear in society.”

Book The Art of Seduction continues the theme of the other books from the author Robert Greene. It is a manual for persuading anyone, be it a business contact, a political adversary, or a love interest.

As with all of his books, the importance of understanding these concepts lies not in using them for the manipulation of others, but in being aware of possible traps other people may set for you. You should always act by what you believe to be right and it’s not the knowledge of these things that is harmful, but the not knowing of them.

You should by all means read this book for yourself. Below, I have written out my book notes, but I couldn’t cover hundreds of pages in just a couple of bullet points. That is why I highly encourage you to create your notes whilst going through the book, and for the time being use mine as a guide on what this book is about.
