Description

Discover the principles employed by Jiang Tai Gong, the brilliant military strategist who helped the king of the Western Zhou Dynasty overthrow the despotic Shang rule in ancient China. These principles were known 3,000 years ago and still remain relevant for today's rulers, administrators, and leaders. Six Strategies for War is one of the seven major Chinese military classics collectively known as Wu Jing Qi Shu (The Seven Books of War). Chinese classical military strategies are being widely reinterpreted and applied in the corporate world today, and a sound appreciation of these is de rigueur for many a sophisticated chief executive.
