What if Freud had left a final paper declaring that morality arises not from the guilt caused by Oedipal desires but, instead, from fear of the unchallengeable authority demonstrated in megalomania?

Despite the apparently endless stream of how to and self-help books, one segment of the population still has nowhere to turn for help and guidance: the would-be tyrants and oppressors of the world. The purpose of this book is to remedy that deficiency.If you are one of those individuals who most of all crave the ability to dominate, subjugate, and control your fellow man, this book is for you. But as with many endeavors, satisfying your lust for dominion over others and building a successful tyrannical regime cannot be done with willpower alone. You need a little know-how as well. Depriving others of their freedom and keeping them subservient to your will is both an art and a science, requiring patience and planning. That is where this book comes in; combining your desire to enslave the masses, and the lessons found in this book, you will soon be well on your way to becoming a successful tyrant.(Some individuals with valuable insights into the methodology of tyrants also happen to be pro-freedom advocates, many quotes from whom are included below. Try not to let their appalling anti-oppression attitudes upset you or get in the way of learning something from them.)
