Editorial Review:

Product Description:
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 provides all the psychological ammunition you need to overcome patterns of failure and forever gain the upper hand.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A deep (and entertaining) view on the art and science of strategy
Though I do not buy into the book's opening premise that life is essentially a zero-sum, win-lose affair that puts us into perpetual conflict with each other, there is much to be learned from this extensive work on how human conflict in general and wars in particular are fought and won. It basically lays out thirty three very concrete strategies to deploy when being in a conflict, each with a direct introduction on how what it is about, when and how to deploy it, and a historical example of it ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Afghanistan
I opened the book on the page that described Afghanistan as having sea ports. Hmmm...since when did land-locked Afghanistan touch the sea?

Someone needs to proof-read!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GOOD READING!
This product is worth reading for anyone over the age of 18. It really gives an insight about life. It is very educating, and worth every penny!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This isn't my typical read, but I loved it.
I actually really, really enjoyed this book. In fact I'd give it 29/33 stars. There were three or four I didn't love.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This Man is Awe inspiring
I read his two other books and found them to be amazing. I can't express just how poignant his work has been to the development of my inner qualities and refinement of my persona. This book is for those that want to understand the psychology and strategy behind war, and in this anarchic world we need that knowledge.
