The Art of War by Sun Tzu

The classic treatise on war by the 6th century BC Chinese general Sun Tzu. Still as relevant today as it was when written and used throughout the world to help those in wars in the boardroom or the playing fields.

The Prince by Nicolo Machiavelli

Nicolo (or Niccolo) Machiavelli was the multi-skilled Italian writer and politician from Florence who wrote his masterpiece on statecraft after his role in government was ended by the return to power of the Medici family - arguably one of the most powerful and Machivellian families in history.

On War (vol. 1) by Carl von Clausewitz

Carl von Clausewitz was a Prussian soldier who fought in the Napoleonic Wars for Prussia and Russia. His book looks at the real world methods of winning wars and pays great attention to Napoleon and Frederick the Great in particular. It is in this book that the term the 'Fog of War' is first used.

Arthashastra by Kautilya

Kautilya's Arthashastra is a work looking at the military, economic and general governing roles of the state in India in the 4th Century BC. It was widely used and referred to up until the 12th century when it disappeared from regular use. It has been referred to as Machivellian in its outlook with Max Weber saying, "compared to it, Machiavelli’s The Prince is harmless."
