today in the Numlock Sunday I talked to @svaneksmith all about her new book, Machiavelli for Women. It's a really stellar read that recontextualizes "The Prince" in terms of the modern workplace, and folds in tons of contemporary research too. https://numlock.substack.com/p/numlock-sunday-stacey-vanek-smith
