The contemporary companion to Sun-tzu.s The Art of War, this brilliant
distillation of the strategies of war can help us gain mastery in the
modern world.
Spanning world civilizations, synthesizing dozens of political,
philosophical, and religious texts and thousands of years of violent
conflict, this is a comprehensive guide to getting ahead and staying
there. Each chapter outlines an approach that will help you win your
life.s wars. Learn the offensive strategies that require you to
maintain the initiative and negotiate from a position of strength,
and the defensive strategies that enable you to respond to dangerous
situations and avoid situations where winning is impossible.
As in The 48 Laws of Power, Robert Greene uses illustrative examples
from history: Lyndon Johnson's tenacity, Julius Caesar's decisiveness,
Joan Crawford's refusal to compromise, Ted Williams's competitive
drive, and the folly and genius of everyone from Napoleon to Margaret
Thatcher, Shaka the Zulu to Ulysses S. Grant. Great warriors of the
battlefield and the drawing room demonstrate prudence, agility,
balance, and calm. The rational, resourceful, and intuitive always
defeat the panicked, uncreative, and stupid.
Informed by the most ingenious and effective military principles
in war, The 33 Strategies of War provides all the psychological
ammunition you need to overcome patterns of failure and forever gain
the upper hand.
