Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How It Changes Us Free Audiobook Download by Brian Klaas


Corruption is nothing new or unusual. Even in the most developed countries corruption remains a major issue, but there's also an increasing amount of corruption around the world. Brian Klaas investigates how corruption fits into society and how it changes us.

In a world where power is wielded by those with the most money, what is the difference between having power and being corruptible? This book examines how great leaders have used corruption and greed to change the world. It also details how those changes have affected all of us.

Written by journalist and author Brian Klaas, this audiobook tells the story of corruption in politics, economics, and society. Klaas argues that a corrupt system is the natural outcome of how power is distributed in today's world.

[Incorruptible is] a response to the idea that corrupt power means powerlessness. It starts from the premise that people who have been in power for generations still get corrupted and that, left unchecked, corruption is a process of self-destruction.

The 'Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How It Changes Us' book provides historical insights into how power changes people. The author, Brian Klaas, is a professor of international politics at the University of California, San Diego. He states that political power can be corrupting in many ways - it can make us act in a way that is not in our best interest, or even act against our own interests. One of the most common ways this happens is when people form strong relationships with those who are in power or are close to someone who is in power.

In this new book, Brian Klaas takes on the big question of power in America today: "Who Gets Power and How It Changes Us." The author argues that power isn't merely a means to an end. Rather, it's a force for change by virtue of its ability to both transform and create.
