Synopsis

Benjamin Wiker examines ten influential books, including Machiavelli's The Prince and Hitler's Mein Kampf, that he argues have profoundly damaged the world. He demonstrates how the perverse ideologies within these texts not only fueled past atrocities like war and genocide but also continue to exert a harmful influence on contemporary society. This book explores the enduring impact of these philosophies and their relevance today.
