Features: This book vividly explains the 36 Stratagems in a modern and colloquial tone, accompanied by illustrations, making it easy for readers to understand historical stories while having fun. "Sixty-six stratagems, numbers contain art, art contains numbers. Yin and Yang change, the opportunity lies within." The 36 Stratagems originated from ancient military strategies and have been widely applied in modern times. In the market, battlefield, and love, as well as in politics, literature, and the entertainment industry, they are almost everywhere. Where there is profit, there are the 36 Stratagems—no wonder the U.S. West Point Military Academy uses them as, and Japanese companies regard them as the Holy Bible of business warfare. However, the 36 Stratagems are indeed ancient, with text that is profound and difficult to understand. For modern people accustomed to fast-paced culture, reading them may feel unnecessarily lengthy and somewhat heavy, lacking in simplicity. This book not only introduces the original text, translations, and insightful commentary but also uses humorous and unconventional language, paired with witty and humorous illustrations, to parody classic battle examples. After reading, you'll realize that the 36 Stratagems can be understood and applied in this way, allowing you to effortlessly grasp their essence through a relaxed and entertaining experience.
