I'll definitely keep an eye on this blog since I'm always looking for something new to read. Not just new as in I don't have that particular book, but new as in I've never read a book that delves into that particular subject. I'm not gentle reader either, so I might check this book out.<BR/><BR/><A>http://electricbible.blogspot.com</A><BR/><BR/><A>http://controversial-blacknesss.blogspot.com</A> <BR/><BR/>6:26 AMC T Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048549172589331683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10898244.post-73872972765595497642007-07-17T11:48:00.000-07:002007-07-17T11:48:00.000-07:00its nice to read ur blog in general..as i am new t...its nice to read ur blog in general..as i am new to this world of blogging, found it nice to read something which was exclusively dedicated to books...CAT Questhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11080864443067990270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10898244.post-65145028836749302092007-07-17T07:18:00.000-07:002007-07-17T07:18:00.000-07:00yes, even i love Machiavelli's political philosoph...yes, even i love Machiavelli's political philosophies, although sound very rhetoric, but most of them were useful to kings. <BR/>even Indian Politician Kautiliya has more or less similar views but they were less brutal but much more of fantasy.
