The Art of Seduction  by Robert Greene is not for the faint of heart.  I was turned onto this book by my barber.

The Art of Seduction breaks down seduction by looking at literature and historical figures such as: Marilyn Monroe, Byron, Cleopatra, Caesar, Thomas Jefferson, Casanova, and Charlie Chaplin and Lord Byron.  Marilyn Monroe didn’t realize  she was smoking hot until she wore a too tight sweater.  It details how she transformed into a sexy siren.

Greene also analyzes the varies type of seducers in great detail!  This book is not just about sex, but the power of seduction.  How does a political leader reel in his or her constitutes? How can a ugly dude get a banging babe?  How does the leader of a cult become a leader? This book is about more than finding easy ass at the club, it is about making them fall head over heels in love with you.  Lust is easy to accomplish, but love is harder.  If someone loves you they will cross the ocean for you, but if they lust the momentum is not the same.

Read this to find out what type of seducer you are.  Read this and you will think back to a person that manipulated you and the techniques they used.  Read this and discover your own talents.  Read this and get a fun history lesson on seduction.

Book Flap:

Which sort of seducer could you be: Siren? Rake? Cold Coquette? Star? Comedian? Charismatic? or Saint? This book will show you which. Charm, persuasion, the ability to create illusions: these are some of the many dazzling gifts of the Seducer, the compelling figure who is able to manipulate, mislead and give pleasure all at once. When raised to the level of art, seduction, and indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections and enslaved great minds. In this beautiful, sensually designed book, Greene unearths the two sides of seduction: the characters and the process. Discover who you, or your pursuer, most resembles.

 Learn, too, the pitfalls of the anti-Seducer. In part II, immerse yourself in the twenty four manoeuvres and strategies of the seductive process, the ritual by which a seducer gains mastery over their target. Understand how to ‘Choose the Right Victim’, ‘Appear to Be an Object of Desire’ and ‘Confuse Desire and Reality’.

In addition, Greene provides instruction on how to identify victims by type. Each fascinating character and each cunning tactic demonstrates a fundamental truth about who we are, and the targets we’ve become – or hope to win over. “The Art of Seduction” is an indispensable primer on the essence of one of history’s greatest weapons and the ultimate power trip.
