Features: The 36 Stratagems are a set of popularized strategic concepts, connecting military tactics with management, serving as a treasure trove for modern life and the wisdom for business people to adapt and change. The "36 Stratagems Wisdom Treasury" approaches the subject from three perspectives—politics, business, and life—to analyze the connotations and essence of each stratagem, broadening the scope of strategy and opening up the framework of thinking. The 36 Stratagems have long been internalized into everyone's life—three-year-old children may use the "Bitter Flesh Stratagem" to deceive adults; eighty-year-old elders adopt the attitude of "Feigning Folly" to face the mundane world; corporate CEOs decide on the strategic approach of "Alliance with Distant States and Attack Neighboring Ones"; and housewives learn how to "Sneak a Cow" to improve efficiency amidst the chores at home.
