Author Robert Greene, author of the iconic PUA classic The Art of Seduction (also wrote the Art of Power and the Art of War), has a new book that he oddly enough wrote with 50 Cent. It is called the 50th Law, which is about being fearless. I highly recommend that book. It has helped me personally with inner game and can of course be applied to pickup.

Just a note: Sun Tzu wrote The Art of War.

The Robert Greene book "The Art of Seduction" even helped with my job, believe or not. I never liked the Jose Silva "Mind Control" methods so the Greene book worked wonders for me. Considering it isn't manipulation in such an forward way. One could say it's not manipulation at all really. Good call Gamble, it looks like a trip to the bookstore is in order. -Maddist

Hey Madbox, I recommended the book by Robert Greene.

Sun Tzu wrote the Art of War, and Robert Greene wrote a book with the same title rewriting The Art of War and how it applies to modern day.

ok Off topic but Lao-Tzu who wrote the Tao Te Ching is quoted heavily in the original art of war. Whilst Lao Tzu advocated finding harmony and balance with existence, Sun Tzu sought to gain victory in combat. However both are heavily influenced by Taoism, Interesting contrast if you get a chance to read it.

Robert Greene did not rewrite Sun Tzu's Art of War. He wrote a completely different book called 33 Strategies of War.

The 48 Laws of Power is an excellent book. Quite a followiong among gangsta rappers who don't want to be put down by da' man.

I gotta read that. Is it written in a theoretical and less practical format similar to The Art of Seduction? His new book with 50 Cent is a lot different than his other ones since it is a short book, easy reading, and has many practical elements. Even though it is not made or written as a how to book.
