Niccolo Machiavelli was a famous Italian philosopher and politician of the Renaissance, who served as Secretary of State in Florence and was responsible for the republic's diplomatic relations.
His treatise On the Art of War is the only political work Machiavelli published during his lifetime. This work is one of the best books on military affairs, along with Gaius Julius Caesar's Notes on the Gallic War and Sun Tzu's The Art of War.
But Machiavelli earned the greatest, special fame for his famous work "The Statesman" (1513), in which he attempted to formulate the general laws of political life, to outline the essence of the "craft of the politician", and to define the role and place of the statesman in Europe and Italy of the sixteenth century.
