Synopsis

A Collection of Wisdom contains over 600 pages of the world's greatest wisdom and teachings from people, quotes, classical texts, philosophies, cultures, folktales, and proverbs.

The book captures the essence of an amazing abundance and variety of the universe's wisdom, and puts it in an unparalleled level of clarity, efficiency, and accessibility.

From the teachings of Confucius to the proverbs of Africa; from Cyrus the Great's Human Rights Charter to Sun Tzu's The Art of War; from the Mulla Nasrudin Tales to the Lakota Native American cultural teachings; from The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli to lessons based on the life of Oprah Winfrey; from the business methods of Andrew Carnegie to the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche; and from the best of La Rochefoucauld to the best of Zen Buddhism--there is almost no stone A Collection of Wisdom leaves unturned in its 608 pages and 72 chapters.

A Collection of Wisdom masterfully organizes material, summarizes books, makes simple explanations, uses clear modern English translations of foreign material, makes the obscure clear, and takes out irrelevant and redundant information.

The result is a book that is more useful than a stack of typical self-help books, more interesting than a collection of conventional philosophy books, and more captivating and informative than a pile of quote and proverb books.

A Collection of Wisdom is sure to be the centerpiece in anyone's personal bookshelf.

About this title

From the Author:

A Collection of Wisdom is the book that the entire world has been writing for thousands and thousands of years through its thoughts, observations, insights, experiences, teachings, lessons, and writings. And it is the result of my personal quest to experience this wisdom, and to unleash it in one book--and give you the best of the best of the best of the best.

Each chapter gets to the point, and presents information in a way that can be learned, understood, and utilized as soon as possible.

I sincerely believe that A Collection of Wisdom is the best book on the market about the world's wisdom. It is a book that everyone can appreciate, enjoy, and benefit from.

I have loved every moment of writing and compiling this book, and it is a product from my heart and my passion.

Now my hope now is to share this passion with you.

Sincerely,

Rodney Ohebsion
