With the current global economy crashing, war andconflict arising from questionable choices ingovernmental circles, not to mention the suppressionof freedoms, high unemployment and rising taxes, thisbook is as relevant today as it was during theRenaissance. This text highlights the benefits of avirtuous and honourable government, showing leaders,both male and female, who adhere to virtue and honourin comparison to leaders who corrupt every essence ofthe concepts. Differences between vir, virtù andvirtus, appear in the numerous examples of leadershipmethods. Corruption ranges from cruel bloody-mindedtyranny and raging hotheadedness; poor leadershipranges from cowardly feebleness to outrightabandonment. This text also addresses the affectthat a leader’s chosen methods have on the bodypolitic. Corruption at the highest levels, hightaxes, unfair laws, impinging freedom and lack ofjustice rightfully result in society’s rebellion andthe overthrow of their leader. Individuals owningvirtue and honour set an example to all, whilst theirrule remains peaceful and their people happy.
