EPOCH book club to discuss 'The Prince'

The book club at EPOCH Assisted Living on the East Side will discuss Niccolò Machiavelli’s political treatise “The Prince” on Monday, July 27 at 2 p.m. Considered one of the first works of modern philosophy, “The Prince” is Machiavelli’s best-known work for its controversial theme, “the end justifies the means,” and contributed to the use of the pejorative term “Machiavellian.”

The EPOCH book club launched seven years ago and remains one of the community’s most popular programs; since its inception, the club has read 80 books. Book club meets the fourth Monday of each month and is free and open to the public. Space is limited. For more information or to RSVP, please call 401-275-0682. EPOCH Assisted Living on the East Side is located at One Butler Ave.
