The Laws of Human Nature Reviews
Pros: a great primer on the psychological tendencies that pull us all in certain directions, mostly to the detriment of our rational goals. Robert Greene identifies 18 such ?laws,? providing historical and biographical sketches that demonstrate each law in practice. He then provide...
So much of discovery is a search for patterns. What links to what? Which variables are related? But patterns aren?t always signs of connection or influence. They can be causal or merely coincidental. And they are seldom universal. Which is exactly why such a high percentage of sci...
Very solid book on the topic. I would call them tendencies instead of strict laws especially because some are not really universal. Also there could have been more evolutionary psychology for there is nothing more fundamental to our nature plus the cognitive biases could have been adde...
Robert Greene again looks at everything from distance. He mentions a lot of names, so his story can hold to something, but in fact, his research is awful. When he mentions Disney park in Paris, he mentions that the park wasn't a success because people in France "don't like to stay i...
My fav quotes (not a review): -Page 29 | "In his conception, the human mind has to worship something, has to have its attention directed to something it values above all else. For most people, it is their ego; for some it is their family, their clan, their god, or their nation. For P...
Just hit repeat once you?re finished it. And again. And again. This content is the stuff of life, business, love, etc. Robert Greene will be looked back on hundreds of years from now as one of the great thinkers of our time. ...

Robert Greene is a great collector of information and a great writer. His snippets of history are interesting and his lessons are also good ones and when you first read it, it feels very insightful. But with just a little reflection, the connection sort of falls apart. The lessons don'...
The latest book of Robert Greene is bound to become a classic. The author of 48 laws of power, Seduction, Mastery and Power has brought out a near comprehensive study of the human dimensions. These are complex at the same time contradictory and changing as well. The author delves deep ...
I don't think I've ever highlighted as much in a book as in this one. It gave me answers to probably 90% of questions concerning humans that I have floating around my mind. ...
Maybe Greene's whole oeuvre has been an elaborate plot to decrease chaos in the world. He has written some of the most popular apologies for cynicism since Machiavelli, but then his last book was a brilliant manual for competent creative people on how to be productive despite all the u...
Another great work by one of my favourite authors. Honestly, the book could finished on page 400, what follows is a fascinating narrative told through many seemingly random stories to prove certain points of human nature. Never have I expected to find an elaborate biography of Chekhov ...
I got mine on the 18th from Chapters Indigo! I was worried they would deliver it late but I got mine before release! I do miss the layout style of his other classic books however I can see this as a move to make them even more timeless. I do sense the typical Hollywood Anti Trump an...
My favorite kind of self-help read. The Robert Greene books are like Plutarch's Lives of famous people for the modern age: each "law" of human nature is demonstrated by an anecdote from history or literature. Not as good as Law of Power or Laws of Seduction, because this is much broade...

I knew before I read this book that I would love it, because the topic of human nature naturally fascinates me. I knew about 1/3rd of the way through this book that it was going to be a "6/5" - a ranking which surpasses excellence, moving me on a deeper level. I knew 2/3rds of the way ...
Wow, what a masterpiece that almost killed the author. If you have any interest in human nature, this is the go-to book. I love how he uses key social figures as examples of the particular law of human nature being played out. It goes to show the human nature that is embedded in all of...
I am already a fan of Robert Greene's works, so naturally I had been anticipating the release of this book ever since he announced on Twitter that he was working on a new book on human nature. Laws of Human Nature didn't disappoint! It is an unabashed exposé of one of my favorite subj...
Couldn?t get in to this book. Too many long, drawn out stories. If the author could just get to the point, this book would be half as long. ...
This is a book that is meant to be studied. It explores the nuances of human nature in such a way that is very easy to understand, and very multifaceted and deep at the same time. The stories He uses as illustrations are quite memorable and show the lesson very well. He covers stories ...
I liked the topic of Human Behavior in this book comparatively better than to the book on power. Both books are insightful. This book had more relatable stories and analogies. ...

Overall Impression: Robert Greene, with The Laws of Human Nature, crafted his finest work to date by summarizing the insights he elucidates in his previous books about the inescapable irrationality of human nature and illustrating them with refreshing historical examples gleaned from v...
Easily Robert Greene's greatest work. I had been waiting for this ever since I finished Mastery back in 2012, and was left hankering for more. I bought this the day it came out and finished not a week later. The Laws of Human Nature goes much further than all of Greene's previous b...

I don't think I've ever highlighted as much in a book as in this one. It gave me answers to probably 90% of questions concerning humans that I have floating around my mind. ...
Maybe Greene's whole oeuvre has been an elaborate plot to decrease chaos in the world. He has written some of the most popular apologies for cynicism since Machiavelli, but then his last book was a brilliant manual for competent creative people on how to be productive despite all the u...
Another great work by one of my favourite authors. Honestly, the book could finished on page 400, what follows is a fascinating narrative told through many seemingly random stories to prove certain points of human nature. Never have I expected to find an elaborate biography of Chekhov ...
I got mine on the 18th from Chapters Indigo! I was worried they would deliver it late but I got mine before release! I do miss the layout style of his other classic books however I can see this as a move to make them even more timeless. I do sense the typical Hollywood Anti Trump an...
My favorite kind of self-help read. The Robert Greene books are like Plutarch's Lives of famous people for the modern age: each "law" of human nature is demonstrated by an anecdote from history or literature. Not as good as Law of Power or Laws of Seduction, because this is much broade...
Reads more like a textbook than a normal book. This book presents a wide scope of certain natural elements that pertain to humans in a universal sense. Greene talks of personality types, neuroses, empathy, narcissism etc. and after explaining these different elements of human nature he...
I knew before I read this book that I would love it, because the topic of human nature naturally fascinates me. I knew about 1/3rd of the way through this book that it was going to be a "6/5" - a ranking which surpasses excellence, moving me on a deeper level. I knew 2/3rds of the way ...
Wow, what a masterpiece that almost killed the author. If you have any interest in human nature, this is the go-to book. I love how he uses key social figures as examples of the particular law of human nature being played out. It goes to show the human nature that is embedded in all of...
I am already a fan of Robert Greene's works, so naturally I had been anticipating the release of this book ever since he announced on Twitter that he was working on a new book on human nature. Laws of Human Nature didn't disappoint! It is an unabashed exposé of one of my favorite subj...
Couldn?t get in to this book. Too many long, drawn out stories. If the author could just get to the point, this book would be half as long. ...
This is a book that is meant to be studied. It explores the nuances of human nature in such a way that is very easy to understand, and very multifaceted and deep at the same time. The stories He uses as illustrations are quite memorable and show the lesson very well. He covers stories ...
I liked the topic of Human Behavior in this book comparatively better than to the book on power. Both books are insightful. This book had more relatable stories and analogies. ...
The select man, the excellent man is urged, by interior necessity, to appeal from himself to some standard beyond himself, superior to himself, whose service he freely accepts. . . . We distinguished the excellent man from the common man by saying that the former is one who makes great...
Not as good as his other books. May be I have read a lot on this topic, I didn?t find much that I didn?t know already. ? ...
Pros: a great primer on the psychological tendencies that pull us all in certain directions, mostly to the detriment of our rational goals. Robert Greene identifies 18 such ?laws,? providing historical and biographical sketches that demonstrate each law in practice. He then provide...
So much of discovery is a search for patterns. What links to what? Which variables are related? But patterns aren?t always signs of connection or influence. They can be causal or merely coincidental. And they are seldom universal. Which is exactly why such a high percentage of sci...
Very solid book on the topic. I would call them tendencies instead of strict laws especially because some are not really universal. Also there could have been more evolutionary psychology for there is nothing more fundamental to our nature plus the cognitive biases could have been adde...
Robert Greene again looks at everything from distance. He mentions a lot of names, so his story can hold to something, but in fact, his research is awful. When he mentions Disney park in Paris, he mentions that the park wasn't a success because people in France "don't like to stay i...
My fav quotes (not a review): -Page 29 | "In his conception, the human mind has to worship something, has to have its attention directed to something it values above all else. For most people, it is their ego; for some it is their family, their clan, their god, or their nation. For P...

Overall Impression: Robert Greene, with The Laws of Human Nature, crafted his finest work to date by summarizing the insights he elucidates in his previous books about the inescapable irrationality of human nature and illustrating them with refreshing historical examples gleaned from v...
Easily Robert Greene's greatest work. I had been waiting for this ever since I finished Mastery back in 2012, and was left hankering for more. I bought this the day it came out and finished not a week later. The Laws of Human Nature goes much further than all of Greene's previous b...
Another winner from Greene, who has firmly cemented himself as an expert on human nature. The book is written in a highly enjoyable format. Going through various epochs of history utilizing examples from many public figures from the past and present. In my humble opinion, Greene's b...
I've enjoyed Robert Greene's previous books immensely. The 48 Laws of Power was my introduction to the Machiavellian world of power and intrigue. Each page of the book was filled with useful ways to create an aura of power and become a more powerful social creature. His later book, Mas...
Book that has so much insight on the good and bad aspects of being human. This book definitely changed how I see my behaviour and others as well. This book is definitely worth reading and I know I?ll be reading this over and over again. ...
Just read it. ...

Not as good as his other books. May be I have read a lot on this topic, I didn?t find much that I didn?t know already. ? ...
#ReadByTawfiq #BooksRead2019 #OneBookPerWeek2019 Buku pertama yang dibaca dalam tahun 2019. The Laws of Human Nature tulisan Robert Greene. Human nature atau sifat manusia adalah kedua-dua ringkas tetapi dalam masa yang sama rumit. The Laws of Human Nature menyenaraikan 18 sif...
Overall Impression: Robert Greene, with The Laws of Human Nature, crafted his finest work to date by summarizing the insights he elucidates in his previous books about the inescapable irrationality of human nature and illustrating them with refreshing historical examples gleaned from v...
Easily Robert Greene's greatest work. I had been waiting for this ever since I finished Mastery back in 2012, and was left hankering for more. I bought this the day it came out and finished not a week later. The Laws of Human Nature goes much further than all of Greene's previous b...
Another winner from Greene, who has firmly cemented himself as an expert on human nature. The book is written in a highly enjoyable format. Going through various epochs of history utilizing examples from many public figures from the past and present. In my humble opinion, Greene's b...
Pros: a great primer on the psychological tendencies that pull us all in certain directions, mostly to the detriment of our rational goals. Robert Greene identifies 18 such ?laws,? providing historical and biographical sketches that demonstrate each law in practice. He then provide...

So much of discovery is a search for patterns. What links to what? Which variables are related? But patterns aren?t always signs of connection or influence. They can be causal or merely coincidental. And they are seldom universal. Which is exactly why such a high percentage of sci...
Very solid book on the topic. I would call them tendencies instead of strict laws especially because some are not really universal. Also there could have been more evolutionary psychology for there is nothing more fundamental to our nature plus the cognitive biases could have been adde...
Robert Greene again looks at everything from distance. He mentions a lot of names, so his story can hold to something, but in fact, his research is awful. When he mentions Disney park in Paris, he mentions that the park wasn't a success because people in France "don't like to stay i...
My fav quotes (not a review): -Page 29 | "In his conception, the human mind has to worship something, has to have its attention directed to something it values above all else. For most people, it is their ego; for some it is their family, their clan, their god, or their nation. For P...
Just hit repeat once you?re finished it. And again. And again. This content is the stuff of life, business, love, etc. Robert Greene will be looked back on hundreds of years from now as one of the great thinkers of our time. ...

Robert Greene is a great collector of information and a great writer. His snippets of history are interesting and his lessons are also good ones and when you first read it, it feels very insightful. But with just a little reflection, the connection sort of falls apart. The lessons don'...
The latest book of Robert Greene is bound to become a classic. The author of 48 laws of power, Seduction, Mastery and Power has brought out a near comprehensive study of the human dimensions. These are complex at the same time contradictory and changing as well. The author delves deep ...
I don't think I've ever highlighted as much in a book as in this one. It gave me answers to probably 90% of questions concerning humans that I have floating around my mind. ...
Maybe Greene's whole oeuvre has been an elaborate plot to decrease chaos in the world. He has written some of the most popular apologies for cynicism since Machiavelli, but then his last book was a brilliant manual for competent creative people on how to be productive despite all the u...
Another great work by one of my favourite authors. Honestly, the book could finished on page 400, what follows is a fascinating narrative told through many seemingly random stories to prove certain points of human nature. Never have I expected to find an elaborate biography of Chekhov ...
I got mine on the 18th from Chapters Indigo! I was worried they would deliver it late but I got mine before release! I do miss the layout style of his other classic books however I can see this as a move to make them even more timeless. I do sense the typical Hollywood Anti Trump an...
My favorite kind of self-help read. The Robert Greene books are like Plutarch's Lives of famous people for the modern age: each "law" of human nature is demonstrated by an anecdote from history or literature. Not as good as Law of Power or Laws of Seduction, because this is much broade...
Reads more like a textbook than a normal book. This book presents a wide scope of certain natural elements that pertain to humans in a universal sense. Greene talks of personality types, neuroses, empathy, narcissism etc. and after explaining these different elements of human nature he...

I knew before I read this book that I would love it, because the topic of human nature naturally fascinates me. I knew about 1/3rd of the way through this book that it was going to be a "6/5" - a ranking which surpasses excellence, moving me on a deeper level. I knew 2/3rds of the way ...
Wow, what a masterpiece that almost killed the author. If you have any interest in human nature, this is the go-to book. I love how he uses key social figures as examples of the particular law of human nature being played out. It goes to show the human nature that is embedded in all of...
I am already a fan of Robert Greene's works, so naturally I had been anticipating the release of this book ever since he announced on Twitter that he was working on a new book on human nature. Laws of Human Nature didn't disappoint! It is an unabashed exposé of one of my favorite subj...
Couldn?t get in to this book. Too many long, drawn out stories. If the author could just get to the point, this book would be half as long. ...
This is a book that is meant to be studied. It explores the nuances of human nature in such a way that is very easy to understand, and very multifaceted and deep at the same time. The stories He uses as illustrations are quite memorable and show the lesson very well. He covers stories ...

I've enjoyed Robert Greene's previous books immensely. The 48 Laws of Power was my introduction to the Machiavellian world of power and intrigue. Each page of the book was filled with useful ways to create an aura of power and become a more powerful social creature. His later book, Mas...
Book that has so much insight on the good and bad aspects of being human. This book definitely changed how I see my behaviour and others as well. This book is definitely worth reading and I know I?ll be reading this over and over again. ...

Robert Greene again looks at everything from distance. He mentions a lot of names, so his story can hold to something, but in fact, his research is awful. When he mentions Disney park in Paris, he mentions that the park wasn't a success because people in France "don't like to stay i...
My fav quotes (not a review): -Page 29 | "In his conception, the human mind has to worship something, has to have its attention directed to something it values above all else. For most people, it is their ego; for some it is their family, their clan, their god, or their nation. For P...
Just hit repeat once you?re finished it. And again. And again. This content is the stuff of life, business, love, etc. Robert Greene will be looked back on hundreds of years from now as one of the great thinkers of our time. ...
must read if you have to interact with... anyone ...
Robert Greene is a great collector of information and a great writer. His snippets of history are interesting and his lessons are also good ones and when you first read it, it feels very insightful. But with just a little reflection, the connection sort of falls apart. The lessons don'...
The latest book of Robert Greene is bound to become a classic. The author of 48 laws of power, Seduction, Mastery and Power has brought out a near comprehensive study of the human dimensions. These are complex at the same time contradictory and changing as well. The author delves deep ...
I don't think I've ever highlighted as much in a book as in this one. It gave me answers to probably 90% of questions concerning humans that I have floating around my mind. ...
Maybe Greene's whole oeuvre has been an elaborate plot to decrease chaos in the world. He has written some of the most popular apologies for cynicism since Machiavelli, but then his last book was a brilliant manual for competent creative people on how to be productive despite all the u...
Another great work by one of my favourite authors. Honestly, the book could finished on page 400, what follows is a fascinating narrative told through many seemingly random stories to prove certain points of human nature. Never have I expected to find an elaborate biography of Chekhov ...
I got mine on the 18th from Chapters Indigo! I was worried they would deliver it late but I got mine before release! I do miss the layout style of his other classic books however I can see this as a move to make them even more timeless. I do sense the typical Hollywood Anti Trump an...
My favorite kind of self-help read. The Robert Greene books are like Plutarch's Lives of famous people for the modern age: each "law" of human nature is demonstrated by an anecdote from history or literature. Not as good as Law of Power or Laws of Seduction, because this is much broade...
Reads more like a textbook than a normal book. This book presents a wide scope of certain natural elements that pertain to humans in a universal sense. Greene talks of personality types, neuroses, empathy, narcissism etc. and after explaining these different elements of human nature he...
I knew before I read this book that I would love it, because the topic of human nature naturally fascinates me. I knew about 1/3rd of the way through this book that it was going to be a "6/5" - a ranking which surpasses excellence, moving me on a deeper level. I knew 2/3rds of the way ...
Wow, what a masterpiece that almost killed the author. If you have any interest in human nature, this is the go-to book. I love how he uses key social figures as examples of the particular law of human nature being played out. It goes to show the human nature that is embedded in all of...
I am already a fan of Robert Greene's works, so naturally I had been anticipating the release of this book ever since he announced on Twitter that he was working on a new book on human nature. Laws of Human Nature didn't disappoint! It is an unabashed exposé of one of my favorite subj...
Couldn?t get in to this book. Too many long, drawn out stories. If the author could just get to the point, this book would be half as long. ...
This is a book that is meant to be studied. It explores the nuances of human nature in such a way that is very easy to understand, and very multifaceted and deep at the same time. The stories He uses as illustrations are quite memorable and show the lesson very well. He covers stories ...
I liked the topic of Human Behavior in this book comparatively better than to the book on power. Both books are insightful. This book had more relatable stories and analogies. ...
The select man, the excellent man is urged, by interior necessity, to appeal from himself to some standard beyond himself, superior to himself, whose service he freely accepts. . . . We distinguished the excellent man from the common man by saying that the former is one who makes great...
Not as good as his other books. May be I have read a lot on this topic, I didn?t find much that I didn?t know already. ? ...

Overall Impression: Robert Greene, with The Laws of Human Nature, crafted his finest work to date by summarizing the insights he elucidates in his previous books about the inescapable irrationality of human nature and illustrating them with refreshing historical examples gleaned from v...
Easily Robert Greene's greatest work. I had been waiting for this ever since I finished Mastery back in 2012, and was left hankering for more. I bought this the day it came out and finished not a week later. The Laws of Human Nature goes much further than all of Greene's previous b...
Another winner from Greene, who has firmly cemented himself as an expert on human nature. The book is written in a highly enjoyable format. Going through various epochs of history utilizing examples from many public figures from the past and present. In my humble opinion, Greene's b...
I've enjoyed Robert Greene's previous books immensely. The 48 Laws of Power was my introduction to the Machiavellian world of power and intrigue. Each page of the book was filled with useful ways to create an aura of power and become a more powerful social creature. His later book, Mas...
Pros: a great primer on the psychological tendencies that pull us all in certain directions, mostly to the detriment of our rational goals. Robert Greene identifies 18 such ?laws,? providing historical and biographical sketches that demonstrate each law in practice. He then provide...
