The 33 Strategies Of War (The Modern Machiavellian Robert Greene)

This book is incredibly well written and full of powerful insights. Robert Greene explains complex ideas in a way that’s easy to follow but still thought-provoking. Every chapter gives you strategies that can be applied to real life, not just history or warfare. It’s engaging, smart, and keeps you wanting to read more. Overall, a great book and definitely worth it.

Another fantastic book by the author and you know and can be read pending on what your situation is because a lot of these strategies might not be useful for you now but they could be at a different point in time.. it doesn't have to be about war specifically but on your own life.

The book arrived in perfect condition no visible damage, clean and well packaged. I'm very pleased with the quality. The content is incredibly interesting and engaging. Definitely worth the purchase. Highly recommend both the product and the seller!

This was indeed one of the best books I have ever read. A serious scientific study of various schools of strategy referencing many great figures of history as examples. This book is undoubtedly a very precious resource which I will consult many times again throughout my life.

Robert Greenes book on the 33 Strategies of War is an ideal companion to the 49 Laws and really does apply to the modern society. I am becoming more aware and caught up in the clique world of office politics. A common encounter within the work place is bullying and harassment within large or small organisations where I have witnessed and experienced insincere work colleagues and managers who conspire, to get ahead without trying. As whistle blowing gets the victim into more trouble than the perpetrator I find Greenes books in general can act as a compass to help navigate and find solutions to many difficulties of social interactions inside the workplace and other everyday encounters. I am taking time to read the 33 strategies because like a game of chess use it as a guide to plan ahead and anticipate counter measures within the work place. Given today's high pressure push button 'me me selfish society' , the 33 strategies of war is indispensable to the honest hard working person who needs to get ahead in life without being dumped on as a pushover. Fight or flight, Greenes 33 Strategies really does teach you to learn covert stealth interpersonal dynamic strategy to double bluff and secure victory, however great or small. I rate this book 10 out of 10.

Read and conquer your mind

Honestly, there’re very, very few who’ve written books like these. It’s a niche genre & it’s hugely popular. In all honesty, I believe if R.G. Could knock out ‘a book a year’ in quantity, people would buy them, every year! I’ve purchased all of the books both in paperback & digitally because: having these books in your pocket is quite simply a tactical advantage in so many ways in daily life. If you can only afford to do one or the other—go for digital. It tends to be cheaper & you’ve the flexibility of a ‘pocket’ library at your finger tips! Dear Robert, I know you are busy & living your life; however, if you feel like upping your releases to one every 24 months, I’m there, with you; buying those titles!

I had already read several of Robert Greene's books when I bought this and so I knew that I was probably going to enjoy this book - and I have. At the beginning and end of each chapter there is a synopsis which you can read first to get a feel for the chapter before you start. For fans of Robert Greene's work this would be a good addition to their library

This book’s length, relative to its content is far too long. The author always follows the same approach: he tries to make a point by telling a long historical story and then adding a quote to proof his point. This does not feel very convincing to me (just scrambled quotes and stories). Furthermore, you tend to forget what he wanted to say. This book is not much more than a summary and does not contain much original content.

I couldn't imagine my life today without Robert's books.

Useful read. Practical for teaching too.

This book opened my eyes to the fact that many situations in my life, which seemed random, were actually well planned by others. It is a bible for anyone looking to improve the quality of their personal or professional life. The book provides clear methodologies to achieve goals when dealing with people, competitors, and family problems.

So well referenced and thought through, R.G is really a brilliant human behavior & psychology analyst. Very thorough and interesting!
