The Art of War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 75min
Sun Tzu's book, The Art of War, is a detailed outline of how to win a war, taken from principles in Chinese science and philosophy. This ideology is divided up into three different parts and is written in a circular way with the first and last chapters relating to the same ideas and tying it all together. The first part of the book is on positional strategy and analyzing your competition's strengths and weaknesses. The very first chapter focuses on planning and introduces the five components that define competitive position. The strategy goes on to describe the economic effects of going to war and the use of spies. The body of the book focuses on expansion. Planning the attack is the first element in expanding forces and gains. Tzu discusses the importance of strength and gaining territory without battle. Defense, the use of force and imagination in planning, and taking to arms is also discussed. The final step to the art of war is learning to use different situations to your advantage. Tzu puts a lot of emphasis on adaption, environmental factors, resistance, and the stages of competition. Many great leaders from around the world have relied on The Art of War to help mold their own philosophies on foreign policy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alastair Cameron.

The Art of War Remastered , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 72min
Vietnam vet, award-winning audiobook narrator and producer Mike Vendetti reads Sun Tzu's The Art of War taken from, The Book of War: The Military Classic of the Far East, by Sun Tzu (active sixth-century BCE) and Wu Tzu, translated by Everard Ferguson Calthrop. Written in the fifth century BCE, by Sun Tzu and Wu Tzu, it remains one of the most celebrated works on war in the literature of China. While the chariot is gone and weapons have changed, these ancient masters have held their own. Since they deal chiefly with the fundamental principles of war, with the influence of politics and human nature on military operations, they show most strikingly how unchanging these principles are. Note from the narrator: When I was deployed to Vietnam with the 1st Infantry Division in 1965, we were hungry for information about how to fight the enemy. As I narrated this audiobook, it became evident to me that our enemy followed the rules Sun laid out nearly 3000 years ago while we ignored or were unaware of them. I couldn't help but think of a scene in the film, We Were Soldiers, where the LT and his platoon chased an enemy combatant into the jungle. He was one of my classmates at Infantry OCS. That mistake cost him his life that day. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mike Vendetti. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/mike/002957/bk_mike_002957_sample.mp3.

The Art of Modern War, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 90min
A number one best seller in the category of Organizational Behavior Sun Tzu was a master philosopher, strategist, and military general who lived during the Zhou dynasty, some 2500 years ago. Originally a military text of stratagem, The Art of War has influenced military and political leaders throughout the centuries. His ideas still hold true today and are highly applicable to the modern-day battleground: corporations. Organizations have a collective psychology and oftentimes an underlying psychosis. Despite nearly 100 years of effort to make management a science, starting with Frederick Taylor in the early 1900s, organizations today are still composed of individuals and their feelings. Even though decisions that are made in everyday business are supposedly rooted in logic and rational thought, almost all decisions are ultimately judgments, and just like all of human behavior, those judgments are based on the individual's mood, feelings, and thoughts. This volume is to be consumed in small chunks, and highlights 21 of Sun Tzu's most applicable strategies. It is aimed toward helping the individual to become a master of his or her surroundings, situations, and adversaries in a corporate environment. This volume applies ancient philosophy to modern-day situations and highlights how we can influence the behavior of others by creating the environment we want, tapping into the feelings and thoughts of others, and ultimately impacting leadership judgments. Some may call it manipulation, some may call it deception. I call it the Art of Modern War. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Wayne A. Kremer.

Pao , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 556min
As a young boy, Pao comes to Jamaica in the wake of the Chinese Civil War and rises to become the Godfather of Kingston's bustling Chinatown. Pao needs to take care of some dirty business, but he is no Don Corleone. The rackets he runs are small-time, and the protection he provides necessary, given the minority status of the Chinese in Jamaica. Pao, in fact, is a sensitive guy in a wise guy role that doesn't quite fit. Often mystified by all that he must take care of, Pao invariably turns to Sun Tzu's Art of War. The juxtaposition of the weighty, aphoristic words of the ancient Chinese sage, with the tricky criminal and romantic predicaments Pao must negotiate builds the basis of the novel's great charm. A tale of post-colonial Jamaica from a unique and politically potent perspective, Pao moves from the last days of British rule through periods of unrest at social and economic inequality, through tides of change that will bring about Rastafarianism and the Back to Africa Movement. Pao is an utterly beguiling, unforgettable novel of race, class and creed, love and ambition, and a country in the throes of tumultuous change. Kerry Young was born in Kingston, Jamaica, to a Chinese-African mother and a Chinese father - a businessman in Kingston's shadow economy who provided inspiration for Pao. Young moved to England in 1965 at the age of ten. She earned her MA in creative writing at Nottingham Trent University. This is her first novel. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kerry Young.

Sun Tzu & Machiavelli Leadership Secrets: How to Become a Superior Leader Utilizing the Principles of The Art of War and The Prince , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 219min
Sun Tzu's The Art of War and Machiavelli's The Prince both are fundamentally important works related to the areas of strategic leadership and decision making. Although almost every leader has heard of these works, very few have read them in depth and applied the lessons they contain to their own lives. This is a huge oversight. Both books contain wisdom and advice that are applicable to almost any situation a leader finds himself in. Both books have reputations for being dense and difficult to understand. This is due to the fact that both were written in other languages and for other time periods. It can be difficult to know exactly what Sun Tzu and Machiavelli intended to convey with their words - and even more difficult to know how to take action on the ideas. This has all changed. For the first time ever, the ideas of The Prince and The Art of War have been combined, updated, and presented in a way that is easy to understand in our modern era. Previously hard-to-interpret concepts have been clarified and shown to be as useful in our own era as they were in the ones for which they were originally written. By listening and taking action on this book, entitled Sun Tzu & Machiavelli Leadership Secrets, by author Anthony D. Jensen, you give yourself the chance to become the most effective leader you can be. You will learn how to use timeless principles of leadership, psychology, and power to achieve everything you set out to do. Both your private and professional lives will benefit immensely from understanding and applying the leadership secrets of Sun Tzu and Machiavelli. ungekürzt. Language: English.
