This book may bring cheer and hope through offering some encouragement and practical solutions.
Afterall, there is much similarity in a China some 1800 years ago when a corrupt and weak government, natural disasters, rebellion and civil war amongst the feudal lords, plunged the country into chaos and uncertainity. The Three Kingdoms era began in turmoil but eventually ended in unification. History tends to repeat itself. Hence, it may be worthwhile to return to the past and seek solutions from history.
The stories highlighted in this book were taken from Chinese historical works as well as the popular historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms.But this book is intended not just for any general economic downturn or period of uncertainity but also for those who seek to handle any crisis. It is indeed handy anytime for anyone whose product lines are aging, growth starting to plateau or stagnate, facing an aggressive rival who is bent on grabbing their market share, or whatever that is ailing and causing them to experience red ink. And even those who are doing well, they too could find this book useful because it helps in preparing them for future crisis.The main in the street, and the employee who would likely find himself being axed from his corporations employ as a result of uncertain times, may also enjoy and benefit from this easy-to-read and thought-provoking book.
