Machiavelli's political philosophy is not inherently evil; it is extremely realistic. This treatise is not simply a political philosophy of the time in which its author lived and worked. It reveals the core of the political philosophy of all times, including today. The treatise is addressed to whoever rules the country and offers advice on how to hold on to power. The ability to do this is the political science of H. Machiavelli.
