History has shown that the war gods are not on the side of the bold, the cautious, the large battalions or the most mobile armies, but on the side of those who follow certain principles of strategy. These principles are dealt with throughout The War Lords, starting with the third century B.C. and ending with the twentieth century business battlefield. This journey through history is completed with a detailed description of how to prepare and measure strategic success in the tradition of the classic, The Art of War, by Sun-Tzu, The War Lords transmits the lessons of history to those who want to win in the field of business with more than 200 examples from U.S. and international companies.
