Strategic treatises on the art of war, politics or leadership have a long history, including those by Thucydides, Xenophon, Kautilya, Machiavelli and Clausewitz; yet, while recent decades have seen the proliferation of books on business strategy, there has still been no single volume, ancient or modern, combining all strands of the human strategic experience-- until now. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Art of Strategy\u003c\/em\u003e encapsulates and conveys the logic of strategy in easily accessible prose, and applies it to virtually every form of human endeavor. It builds upon the existing strategic wisdom produced by the great masters to present a holistic theory of strategy that is relevant to practice: a sprightly yet sober analysis of fifty maxims, drawing on examples from chess to psychology. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePlatias and Koliopoulos offer the reader a guide to strategic behavior in all areas of life, while at the same time building a comprehensive theory of victory. They provide a framework that helps the reader to understand the nature of strategy, to think strategically, and to act strategically--and successfully.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Athanasios Platias,Constantinos Koliopoulos\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1805264214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781805264217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hurst \u0026amp; Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Athanasios Platias","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48742973473023,"sku":"9781805264217","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-art-of-strategy-athanasios-platias-9781805264217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
