The Art of War.
Attributed to the Chinese general and strategist Sun Tzu and dated to roughly the 5th century BC, The Art of War is one of the oldest texts on strategy still in continuous print — and one of the most widely translated books of any kind.
“Sun Tzu's insights are still relevant today, and his advice can be applied to a wide range of situations, from business negotiations to political campaigns. If you are looking for a book to help you succeed in any competitive position, then The Art of War is a must-read. It is a timeless classic that has something to offer everyone.”
Edition description — hardcover, unabridged, April 17, 2019It is not really about weapons.
Very few books last two and a half thousand years, and none do it by accident. The text endures because its subject is not terrain or armament — it is deception, timing, information, supply and the psychology of an opponent, none of which have changed.
It has been read for centuries by soldiers, and for decades by executives, negotiators and strategists in fields Sun Tzu could not have imagined.

The shelf behind the broadcast.
Twelve years and 2,800 episodes of guests do not come from nowhere. This shelf is where a good deal of it starts — the books that keep turning up in conversations on the show, recommended because they were useful rather than because somebody was promoting them.
Some are centuries old. Some were published this decade. They are here because they reward the kind of reader who writes things down and goes and checks.
