ART OF PRISON WAR

PRISON IS THE MOST CONTROLLEDENVIRONMENT ON EARTH-AND THE MOST HONEST.Strip away money, status, comfort, and escape, and human nature has nowhere left to hide.For years, Raymond Jones observed men in an environment designed to expose every weakness and every strength. The loud and the silent. The feared and the forgotten. The men who rose, the men who fell, and the men who destroyed themselves without ever understanding why. Beneath thousands of daily interactions, he discovered the same patterns repeating again and again: power, influence, desperation, discipline, ego, patience, reputation, and self-mastery.Art of Prison War distills those observations into 33 principles of human nature, strategy, power, and personal mastery. Each principle begins with a real story. Each story reveals a deeper law.And each law reaches far beyond prison walls.THIS IS NOT A BOOK ABOUT PRISON.IT IS A BOOK ABOUT PEOPLE.Because the forces that move men inside a prison are the same forces that move them everywhere else.
