Great Read!!!

This is a fantastic read. I highly recommend this book to anyone in a stressful or political work environment looking for strategies to survive and influence others. It helped open my mind and I refer to various chapters regularly.

Robert Greene's books are worth their weight in diamonds.

Many people don't want to get near a war; I certainly don't. Greene's primary purpose is to help us succeed in the battlefields of ideas, of business, of personal relations. The warrior's vocabulary and viewpoint are extraordinarily useful in these endeavors. Don't think you can stay away from conflict; you can't. If you achieve anything of value in your life, you must be prepared to defend it against those who will lay claim to it. If you try to escape to someplace safe--a family, a church, an academic cloister--you'll find the vicious dynamics of war have set your ivory tower on fire.

I used Greene's strategies to defeat a man who violated a contract. I also succeeded in removing--non-violently, of course--several unpleasant individuals who were making my life miserable. I employ Greene's ideas with my spouse, with our child, on my job, every day.

Can't Wait to read this

Robert Greene is great at giving examples and historical stories on his topics great book.

Fight, fight to survive!

When I mean powerful, I mean POWERFUL. I couldn't have read a more influential book--aside from the 48 Laws of Power--than the 33 Strategies of War. At first, I thought this book was only about war and the strategy of blowing people up. Instead, it's about survival. What intrigues me about Robert Greene's masterful work is that he doesn't make things appear perfect. He's not your typical motivational speaker where if you have a tinge of hope, everything will be juuuust fine. No, that's not how it works. It's the law of attraction plus action. We all go through trials and tribulations, and Robert reminds us that to survive in today's world, we can't lead a life of boredom and slothiness. Remember the famous question, "What do you want to be when you grow up"? Well, I believe that more than half of the human population still can't come up with a clear answer. And I don't want to place myself above anybody else because I could include myself in that bunch. However, after reading this book, it made me realize that it's a dog-eat-dog world, and to survive you must " fight like hell" to get out alive.
That's as far as I will go with my review on Robert Greene's work of art. If you cross this book in a bookstore or library, pick it up; take it home; and start to change your life.
