Niccolo di Bernardo dei Machiavelli was an Italian diplomat, author, philosopher and historian who lived during the Renaissance. He is best known for his political treatise The Prince, written about 1513 but not published until 1532. He has often been called the father of modern political philosophy and political science.

This book bound with traditional Chinese bookbinding methods, also called stitched binding, is the method of bookbinding that the Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, and Vietnamese used before adopting the modern codex form.
