Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Intelligence, Power And Personality is a book written by George Crile that explores the relationship between intelligence, power, and personality. The author argues that intelligence and personality traits play a crucial role in determining an individual's ability to attain and wield power. He examines the lives of various historical figures, including Napoleon Bonaparte, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt, to illustrate how their intelligence and personality traits contributed to their success. The book also delves into the psychological and physiological factors that influence intelligence and personality, such as genetics, upbringing, and environment. Crile's work is a thought-provoking analysis of the complex interplay between intelligence, power, and personality, and its implications for individuals and society as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
