En una realidad cada vez más competitiva y hostil, no basta con conocer las herramientas tradicionales de la cooperación, la comunicación y la civilidad. Como reza la paradójica sentencia, el que quiera paz deberá prepararse para la guerra. En la política, los negocios y buena parte de nuestras interacciones sociales, es el conflicto, interno y externo, el que rige la toma diaria de decisiones. Robert Greene lo sabe bien: a partir del estudio de siglos de historia humana, ha sintetizado las claves de la defensa, el ataque, los planes de batalla, la diplomacia y el manejo del triunfo y la derrota en 33 máximas fundamentales para todos los aspectos de la vida. En genios militares como Alejandro Magno, Napoleón y Sun Tzu y figuas como Alfred Hitchcock y Muhammad Ali, Greene encuentra las historias,In the competitive and violent world of today, it is impossible to avoid conflict, especially if we want to reach important goals, fulfill our wishes, and gain the respect of others. According to Robert Greene, the everyday life has become a permanent struggle that is waged on all fronts. War is not a separate kingdom that is divorced from the rest of society. It is a field that is eminently human, a grocery store of the best and the worst of our nature. It is indispensable to learn to face the daily battles with the best strategies possible. There is nobody better to teach us than the great warriors of the past, whose lessons and examples allow us to vanquish our enemies and to conquer our social and professional objectives. Abundantly illustrated with examples from history, such as Hannibal, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte, and Frederick the Great, each of the 33 chapters outlines a strategy that will help you win life’s wars. An indispensable book, The 33 Strategies of War provides all the psychological ammunition you need to overcome patterns of failure and forever gain the upper hand.
