Features: Confucianism, Mohism, Military Strategy, Taoism, and the Yin-Yang Theory—the wisdom of the Hundred Schools, dazzling, sharp, and cunning, once flourished during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. But after Emperor Wu of Han "suppressed the Hundred Schools," only the struggling Confucianism stood alone for 2,000 years. Now, our approach to handling matters has returned to the era of the Hundred Schools. Learn management from Laozi and Confucius, rhetoric from Confucius and Mencius, cunning from Mozi, strategy from Sun Tzu, marketing from Lü Buwei, deception from Guiguzi, and sophistry from Gongsun Long.
This book uses a sharp and witty style, along with concise and humorous stories, to break down the core ideas of works like The Art of War, The Guiguzi, Tao Te Ching, The I Ching, and The Analects—strategy, planning, and rhetoric—to reach the essence of millennia-old wisdom. Whether it's dealing with people, handling affairs, socializing, networking, or managing, you can apply ancient wisdom to modern life and achieve victory at every turn.
