The present book is a saga of Vile and Naïve as we find these two kinds of people in the world of power and politics. Vile is a persona for whom only the ends matter while Naïve is a persona for whom means is as important as ends. In the battle for power, sometimes Naïve wins, but more often it is Vile. The Management Guru Mr. Pavan Choudary takes the prior statement as a challenge and enunciates the ways for Naïve to handle the tactics of Vile. This book is for Naïve who is benevolent and compassionate and above all a man with conscience. He is complete opposite to Vile who is a man with lots of ambition but little conscience. The author challenges the common Machiavelli’s belief that a good man hasn’t got a chance.
