I just started to read this book, i do not understand why there are too many negative reviews for this book?

To practice a good chunk of all these laws you have to assume a narcissistic, selfish personality and to some extent forsake aspects of your humanity. Thus those negative reviews are coming from moralists with strict principles of life, humanity, and power which is understandable. But they are angry because they view this book as a guide to power, which it is not. It is a clear cautionary tale on human psychology and a guide on how to avoid being snared by crafty individuals. If you look at it from this point of view, then you'll agree that it deserves more than 5 stars.(less)

The only reason I gave this three stars was because of the intriguing historical references and stories it contained, as to the rules, I found them to be not only immoral, but quite frankly, evil. Many of the rules may have ground in psychology and human behavior but to almost advocate for it for selfish and hungry power purposes is wrong. Imagine what this book can do in the hands of a morally bankrupt individual?

Alvin I'd respond to that 3-star review by responding that the book in itself is amoral, morality as a concept is only applicable to a living, rational beinâ€¦m´Ç°ù±ðI'd respond to that 3-star review by responding that the book in itself is amoral, morality as a concept is only applicable to a living, rational being which this book is not.
In any case, most of what is written there is already happening and will continue to happen in this world as long humanity exists. So, for the individual with strict moral principles like you, this book should not be viewed as a guide but rather as a cautionary warning of what other people with liberal views are capable of. And based on that conclusion I believe that the author and this book are highly deserving of a 5-star rating.(less)
