Reviews
"One of the most thought-provoking and profound books that I have recently read. As readable as it is stimulating." -Henry Kissinger "I read Warrior Politics with fascination. Kaplan makes a persuasive case that the insights of ancient philosophers--from Sun-Tzu to Machiavelli--are relevant to modern security problems. This book will be read by scholars, but it should also be read by those responsible today for making the decisions that affect our national security." -William J. Perry, former secretary of defense "Robert Kaplan skillfully captures the relevance of classical political theory for today's leaders, whether they manage crises in the boardroom or the Oval Office." -William S. Cohen, former secretary of defense "Warrior Politics should be read by every citizen deeply concerned about America's role in the world. I highly recommend Kaplan's brilliant new book to anyone trying to understand what needs to be done in response to September 11." -Newt Gingrich "This is a brilliant and incisive book that should be read and discussed by policy makers and informed citizens alike, to help us think about how the modern state can exist, prosper, and survive in the face of twenty-first-century challenges." -Denis A. Bovin,vice chairman, Bear Stearns "This is an extraordinary book, one to be read by anyone interested in surviving in the twenty-first century. But it is not a book for bedtime reading . . . at least not if you like sleeping. Always provocative, Kaplan takes, head-on, lessons of conflict over the centuries, which continue to be true because humans continue to be human." -Norman R. Augustine, CEO of Lockheed Martin "A profound and timely meditation on twenty-first-century global politics and America's place in it. Deeply versed in classical scholarship, Robert Kaplan shows how the philosophers and historians of ancient Greece and Rome offer vital lessons for American leaders today." -John Gray, professor of European thought, London School of Economics "Sun-Tzu also suggested that with the battle won, the best leader persuades his followers that they did it themselves: one great lesson among many others in this gem of a book for present and future leaders." -Sidney Harman, executive chairman, Harman International Industries "An intellectual tour de force expressing the enduring relevance of ancient principles of statecraft to modern circumstances in the most lucid and persuasive prose I've ever read." -Robert McFarlane, former national security adviser

- v***v (2082)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
