SUN TZU in 36 Stratagems by Pierre Fayard Pdf

“The art of war is like water which flows clear of heights and fills the hollows”! So what else Master Sun Tzu? How can one translate your metaphorical phrasing into practical fruitful advice for Westerners? Though it was written 25 centuries ago, your master-piece is currently the most read and used world-wide by strategists whatever fields they belong to. Its main guidelines recommend molding with circumstances and identifying the potential in any situation, cultivating change, avoiding conflicts as far as possible, and transforming opponents into unwitting allies! Why have so many contemporaries chosen it as their bedside book? How does such a classic from ancient rural and feudal China provide a successful answer to our modern personal and professional preoccupations? To take up such a challenge and make understandable and applicable the precepts of Sun Tzu, the author develops and adapts one by one the 36 traditional Chinese stratagems and enriches them by resorting to the major Asian and Western thinkers of strategy. By telling stories and assuming a deliberate purpose of popularization, he provides keys to conceive creative strategies based on three major principles: efficiency, harmony and paradox.

Mastering the Art of War by Liang Zhuge,Ji Liu Pdf

Composed by two prominent statesmen-generals of classical China, this book develops the strategies of Sun Tzu's classic, The Art of War , into a complete handbook of organization and leadership. The great leaders of ancient China who were trained in Sun Tzu's principles understood how war is waged successfully, both materially and mentally, and how victory and defeat follow clear social, psychological, and environmental laws. Drawing on episodes from the panorama of Chinese history, Mastering the Art of War presents practical summaries of these essential laws along with tales of conflict and strategy that show in concrete terms the proper use of Sun Tzu's principles. The book also examines the social and psychological aspects of organization and crisis management. The translator's introduction surveys the Chinese philosophies of war and conflict and explores in depth the parallels between The Art of War and the oldest handbook of strategic living, the I Ching (Book of Changes).

36 Stratagems Plus by Douglas S. Tung,S. T Douglas S. Tung and Teresa K. Tung Pdf

"He who knows not the stratagems is respectable, but he who plays no stratagems in spite of knowing them deserves more respect." In 36 Stratagems Plus, authors Douglas S. Tung and Teresa K. Tung provide a unique collection of ancient Chinese tactics that describe some of the cunning and subtle stratagems-a strategic plan that contains a trap or a ruse for the enemy. Many of these stratagems had their origins in events that occurred during the Warring States Period (475-221 BC) and the Three Kingdoms Period (220-280) in China. This collection includes sixty stratagems that illustrate the enlightened exploitation of strategic power. For each stratagem, the Tungs present an eclectic discussion of its theme, the classic Chinese case supplemented by two international cases to illustrate the use of these strategic acts by other nationalities. They then trace its source which is usually the exploit of some of the Chinese generals, statesmen, and ordinary people. The source may be from The Art of War. 36 Stratagems Plus demonstrates that it is not the quantity of stratagems that matter, but rather the way in which they are deployed.
