Download or read book Sun Tzu at Gettysburg Ancient Military Wisdom in the Modern World written by Bevin Alexander and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2011-05-31 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The world’s most fascinating battles and how they were won or lost, according to the Chinese sage.”—Kirkus Reviews Imagine if Robert E. Lee had withdrawn to higher ground at Gettysburg instead of sending Pickett uphill against the entrenched Union line. Or if Napoléon, at Waterloo, had avoided mistakes he’d never made before. The advice that would have changed these crucial battles was written down centuries before Christ was born—but unfortunately for Lee, Napoléon, and Hitler, Sun Tzu’s The Art of War only became widely available in the West in the mid-twentieth century. As Bevin Alexander shows, Sun Tzu’s maxims often boil down to common sense, in a particularly pure and clear form. When Alexander frames these modern battles against 2,400-year-old precepts, the degree of overlap is stunning.

Download or read book Give War and Peace a Chance written by Andrew D. Kaufman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-05-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This lively appreciation of one of the most intimidating and massive novels ever written should persuade many hesitant readers to try scaling the heights of War and Peace sooner rather than later” (Publishers Weekly). Considered by many critics the greatest novel ever written, War and Peace is also one of the most feared. And at 1,500 pages, it’s no wonder why. Still, in July 2009 Newsweek put War and Peace at the top of its list of 100 great novels and a 2007 edition of the AARP Bulletin included the novel in their list of the top four books everybody should read by the age of fifty. A New York Times survey from 2009 identified Warand Peace as the world classic you’re most likely to find people reading on their subway commute to work. What might all those Newsweek devotees, senior citizens, and harried commuters see in a book about the Napoleonic Wars in the early 1800s? War and Peace is many things. It is a love story, a family saga, a war novel. But at its core it’s a novel about human beings attempting to create a meaningful life for themselves in a country torn apart by war, social change, political intrigue, and spiritual confusion. It is a mirror of our times. Give War and Peace a Chance takes readers on a journey through War and Peace that reframes their very understanding of what it means to live through troubled times and survive them. Touching on a broad range of topics, from courage to romance, parenting to death, Kaufman demonstrates how Tolstoy’s wisdom can help us live fuller, more meaningful lives. The ideal companion to War and Peace, this book “makes Tolstoy’s characters lively and palpable…and may well persuade readers to finally dive into one of the world’s most acclaimed—and daunting—novels” (Kirkus Reviews).

Download or read book How to Grow Old written by Marcus Tullius Cicero and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Timeless wisdom on growing old gracefully from one of ancient Rome's greatest philosophers Worried that old age will inevitably mean losing your libido, your health, and possibly your marbles too? Well, Cicero has some good news for you. In How to Grow Old, the great Roman orator and statesman eloquently describes how you can make the second half of life the best part of all—and why you might discover that reading and gardening are actually far more pleasurable than sex ever was. Filled with timeless wisdom and practical guidance, Cicero's brief, charming classic—written in 44 BC and originally titled On Old Age—has delighted and inspired readers, from Saint Augustine to Thomas Jefferson, for more than two thousand years. Presented here in a lively new translation with an informative new introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, the book directly addresses the greatest fears of growing older and persuasively argues why these worries are greatly exaggerated—or altogether mistaken. Montaigne said Cicero's book "gives one an appetite for growing old." The American founding father John Adams read it repeatedly in his later years. And today its lessons are more relevant than ever in a world obsessed with the futile pursuit of youth.

Download or read book How to Think about War written by Thucydides and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible modern translation of essential speeches from Thucydides’s History that takes readers to the heart of his profound insights on diplomacy, foreign policy, and war Why do nations go to war? What are citizens willing to die for? What justifies foreign invasion? And does might always make right? For nearly 2,500 years, students, politicians, political thinkers, and military leaders have read the eloquent and shrewd speeches in Thucydides’s History of the Peloponnesian War for profound insights into military conflict, diplomacy, and the behavior of people and countries in times of crisis. How to Think about War presents the most influential and compelling of these speeches in an elegant new translation by classicist Johanna Hanink, accompanied by an enlightening introduction, informative headnotes, and the original Greek on facing pages. The result is an ideally accessible introduction to Thucydides’s long and challenging History. Thucydides intended his account of the clash between classical Greece’s mightiest powers—Athens and Sparta—to be a “possession for all time.” Today, it remains a foundational work for the study not only of ancient history but also contemporary politics and international relations. How to Think about War features speeches that have earned the History its celebrated status—all of those delivered before the Athenian Assembly, as well as Pericles’s funeral oration and the notoriously ruthless “Melian Dialogue.” Organized by key debates, these complex speeches reveal the recklessness, cruelty, and realpolitik of Athenian warfighting and imperialism. The first English-language collection of speeches from Thucydides in nearly half a century, How to Think about War takes readers straight to the heart of this timeless thinker.

Download or read book The Four Hundred Songs of War and Wisdom written by George L. Hart and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2002-08-21 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two prominent translators present the first complete English-language edition of one of India's greatest works of classical literature: the Purananuru. This anthology of four hundred poems by more than 150 poets between the first and third centuries CE in old Tamil—the literary language of ancient Tamilnadu—was composed before Aryan influence had penetrated the south. It is thus a unique testament to pre-Aryan India. Beyond its importance for understanding the development of South Asia's history, culture, religion, and linguistics, the Purananuru is a great work of literature, reflecting accurately and profoundly the life of southern India 2,000 years ago. One of the few works of classical India that confronts life without the insulation of a philosophical facade and that makes no basic assumptions about karma and the afterlife, the Purananuru has universal appeal. It faces the world as a great and unsolved mystery, delving into living and dying, despair, love, poverty, and the changing nature of existence. To this hidden gem of world literature George L. Hart and Hank Heifetz add a helpful appendix, an annotated bibliography, and an excellent introduction describing the work and placing it in its social and historical context.

Download or read book A Century of Wisdom written by Caroline Stoessinger and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of the Academy Award–winning documentary The Lady in Number 6: Music Saved My Life, Alice Herz-Sommer was the world’s oldest Holocaust survivor when she died on February 23, 2014. A Century of Wisdom is the true story of her life—an inspiring story of resilience and the power of optimism. Before her death at 110, the pianist Alice Herz-Sommer was an eyewitness to the entire last century and the first decade of this one. She had seen it all, surviving the Theresienstadt concentration camp, attending the trial of Adolf Eichmann in Jerusalem, and along the way coming into contact with some of the most fascinating historical figures of our time. As a child in Prague, she spent weekends and holidays in the company of Franz Kafka (whom she knew as “Uncle Franz”), and Gustav Mahler, Sigmund Freud, and Rainer Maria Rilke were friendly with her mother. When Alice moved to Israel after the war, Golda Meir attended her house concerts, as did Arthur Rubinstein, Leonard Bernstein, and Isaac Stern. Until the end of her life Alice, who lived in London, practiced piano for hours every day. Despite her imprisonment in Theresienstadt and the murders of her mother, husband, and friends by the Nazis, and much later the premature death of her son, Alice was victorious in her ability to live a life without bitterness. She credited music as the key to her survival, as well as her ability to acknowledge the humanity in each person, even her enemies. A Century of Wisdom is the remarkable and inspiring story of one woman’s lifelong determination—in the face of some of the worst evils known to man—to find goodness in life. It is a testament to the bonds of friendship, the power of music, and the importance of leading a life of material simplicity, intellectual curiosity, and never-ending optimism. Praise for A Century of Wisdom “An instruction manual for a life well lived.”—The Wall Street Journal “As if her 108 years of experience alone were not enough to coax you, there is the overarching fact that draws people to Herz-Sommer’s story: She survived the Theresienstadt concentration camp and is believed to be the oldest living Holocaust survivor.”—The Washington Post “I have rarely read a Holocaust survivor’s memoir as enriching and meaningful. Get Caroline Stoessinger’s book, A Century of Wisdom, telling Alice Herz-Sommer’s tale of her struggles and triumphs. You will feel rewarded.”—Elie Wiesel “A Century of Wisdom is a stately and elegant book about an artist who found deliverance in her passion for music. Caroline Stoessinger writes with a special purity, as though she were arranging pearls on a string of silk.”—Pat Conroy “As one of millions who fell in love on YouTube with Alice Herz-Sommer, a 108-year-old Holocaust survivor who plays the piano and greets each day with no hint of bitterness, I’m grateful to Caroline Stoessinger for writing a book that explains this mystery. You will be inspired by the story of Alice Herz-Sommer, who lives to teach us.”—Gloria Steinem “I walked on the cobblestones in Prague for thirty years wondering who might have walked on them before me: Kafka, Freud, Mahler. It feels like a miracle to have encountered, in Caroline Stoessinger’s wonderful book, Alice Herz-Sommer, who walked with them all—with a heart full of music.”—Peter Sis “A Century of Wisdom is universal and will enrich readers for generations to come.”—Itzhak Perlman

Book excerpt: Title: The Art of War Author: Sun Tzu Description: "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu is an ancient and enduring masterpiece of military strategy and philosophy. Written over two thousand years ago, it remains one of the most influential texts on warfare, leadership, and conflict resolution ever written. This timeless treatise is attributed to the legendary Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu, who expounds on the art of victory in battle, diplomacy, and life itself. His teachings have found application in diverse fields beyond warfare, from business and politics to personal development and sports. Structured in 13 chapters, "The Art of War" offers profound insights into the nature of conflict, strategy, and tactics. It delves into the importance of flexibility, adaptability, and cunning, emphasizing the need to understand and outmaneuver one's adversaries. Sun Tzu's emphasis on the power of knowledge, preparation, and deception provides valuable lessons for individuals and organizations seeking to overcome challenges and rivals. The book's central theme revolves around the idea that the most significant victories are won before the actual battle takes place, through meticulous planning and an understanding of one's own strengths and weaknesses, as well as those of the opponent. Sun Tzu's teachings encourage readers to think strategically and to find ways to prevail through intellect rather than brute force. "The Art of War" is not just a manual for the battlefield; it is a guide to achieving success in any competitive environment. Sun Tzu's principles, such as "All warfare is based on deception" and "Opportunities multiply as they are seized," offer invaluable insights into the psychology of competition and the dynamics of power. Despite its ancient origins, "The Art of War" remains relevant in contemporary contexts, making it a must-read for leaders, strategists, and anyone seeking to navigate the complexities of human interaction and conflict. Whether applied to the battlefield or the boardroom, Sun Tzu's wisdom continues to shape the strategies and tactics of those who seek to achieve their objectives with skill and precision.

Download or read book Understanding the Greatest War Campaign Ever Conceived written by Joseph J Frazier and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extremely unique work defines spiritual warfare in a way never written before. It is uniquely Bible centered and takes the reader from Genesis to Revelation to scripturally document spiritual warfare without academic commentaries, artistic liberties, or personal opinions. It is an exhaustive resource of over 800 pages that brilliantly details the relationship of physical and spiritual warfare strictly in the context of the Bible. King Solomon's Book of Proverbs establishes the foundation of this magnificent manuscript and it is his wisdom that provides clarity of the war before all humanity. Solomon's work identifies the forces that make-up five powerful defenders of the positive forces warring against 25 aggressors of the negative forces. In essence, he provides the substance of the "invisible" attributes that the apostle Paul speaks of in Romans 1:20 and then elaborates on in Ephesians 6:11-18. With this backdrop, the full effect of spiritual warfare is exquisitely explained by scriptural references and example after example taken from every book of the Bible. Scriptures, charts, tables, and graphics are all used to form definitive illustrations of the warring attributes that are often referred to as the Biblical "good" and "evil" or popular forces of "light" and "darkness". Moreover, this extraordinary resource specifically defines what is in the "harvest" that Jesus spoke of when He said, "...The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few" (Matthew 9:37). It informs the reader, in the context of war, how the influences of the positive and negative forces affect the harvest. Further, this resource explains why so many people fall as collateral damage in spiritual war by their ignorance (Hosea 4:6). It clarifies why God's judgement is impartial and leaves every adult soul without excuse in accordance with Romans 2:1-11. This resource provides a graphic representation of the spiritual battlefield, clarifies the importance of Biblical "discernment", and documents the impact of "calamity" and "strife" on the battlefield. Finally, this resource documents God's only authorized refuge, its organizational structure, and its function on the spiritual battlefield for educating those who desire to survive the war. This is an eye opener for many that is embedded in God's word. However, it is based on God's standing Biblical principles that man has no right to add or take away from His word which is stated in the beginning (Deuteronomy 4:2 and 12:32), the middle (Proverbs 30:5-6), and the end (Revelation 22:18) of His Holy word.You will not regret your purchase of this invaluable resource. Just like the "Understanding the Greatest War Campaign Ever Conceived - Clarity from the Book of Proverbs and How to Win" book cover is a basic color design of black and white, so is the information contained in this resource. It is written for everyone. Written by a 30-year veteran of the United States Army, Colonel Joseph Frazier's exhaustive work reveals the scriptural basis for God's special armor (Ephesians 6:10-20) on the true battlefield. From his extensive military experience, Colonel Frazier puts in context what very few authors on the market can. Using his experience in the Gulf War, he scripturally explains the "fog of war" as it visually and cognitively impairs souls on the spiritual battlefield. Colonel Frazier reveals the truth about deception, its tactics and strategies, and the true covert nature of a fierce enemy. In fact, he scripturally dissects the true aspect of war fighting down to the simple principles of: -Who or what is the enemy? -What are his or her capabilities? -What motivates him or her to fight?Based on this monumental and exhaustive resource, Colonel Frazier genuinely understands that an invisible or visible adversary cannot be defeated without knowledge of these key elements.

Download or read book The Greek Search for Wisdom written by Michael K. Kellogg and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The philosopher Alfred North Whitehead once said that all of Western philosophy was "but a series of footnotes to Plato." By the same token, one could argue that all of Western civilization is but an extension of the ancient Greek cultural legacy. The Greeks invented tragedy, comedy, lyric poetry, history, philosophy, and democracy. They also made remarkable advances in science, medicine, and mathematics. In the author’s view, what ties this wide-ranging intellectual ferment together is a restless search for wisdom. The author looks at ten outstanding examples of Greek wisdom, offering fresh and engaging portraits of the epic poets (Homer, Hesiod); dramatists (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes); historians (Herodotus, Thucydides); and philosophers (Plato, Aristotle) against the background of Greek history. In each case he asks what the author has to tell us— regardless of genre—about our place in the world and how we should live our lives. By surveying some of the highest peaks of ancient civilization, the author argues that we gain perspective on the historical terrain that lies below. This book presents an eloquent and convincing case that a study of the Greek classics, as Gustave Flaubert explained, makes us "greater, wiser, purer."
