Description: Robert Greene's groundbreaking guides, THE 48 LAWS OF POWER and THE ART OF SEDUCTION, espouse profound, timeless lessons from the events of history to help readers vanquish an enemy or ensnare an unsuspecting victim. Now, with THE 33 STRATEGIES OF WAR, Greene has crafted an important new addition to this ruthless and unique series. Spanning world civilizations, synthesizing dozens of political, philosophical, and religious texts and thousands of years of violent conflict, THE 33 STRATEGIES OF WAR is a comprehensive guide to the subtle social game of everyday life informed by the most ingenious and effective military principles in war. Structured in Greene's trademark style, THE 33 STRATEGIES OF WAR is the I-Ching of conflict, the contemporary companion to Sun Tzu's THE ART OF WAR. Abundantly illustrated with examples from history, including the folly and genius of everyone from Napoleon to Margaret Thatcher, Shaka the Zulu to Lord Nelson, Hannibal to Ulysses S. Grant, as well as movie moguls, Samurai swordsmen, and diplomats, each of the thirty-three chapters outlines a strategy that will help you win life's wars.
