From the bestselling, award-winning authors of Musashi's Dokkodo... "Whether you're an entrepreneur, negotiator, or just someone seeking to improve your strategic thinking, I highly recommend this book." - Mark Raffan General Sun Tzu (544 - 496 BC) was one of the most celebrated strategists in all of human history. He recorded his winning precepts in Art of War sometime around 510 BC. It is the earliest surviving and most revered tome of its kind, one that centuries later is still widely referenced by captains of industry, heads of state, military leaders, martial artists, law enforcement professionals, lawmakers, mediators, diplomats, and businesspeople who need a competitive advantage in dealing with conflict. With methods so powerful they can conquer an adversary's spirit, you can use Master Tzu's strategies to overcome any challenge, from warfare to self-defense to business negotiations. This book starts with the classic 1910 translation of Art of War, adds modern and historical insight, and demonstrates how to put the master's timeless wisdom to use in your everyday life. In this fashion, the Art of War becomes accessible for the modern mind, simultaneously entertaining, enlightening, and practical.

He has been interviewed by FOX, The Jim Bohannon Show, Computerworld, Forbes, Art of Procurement, Negotiations Ninja, Police Magazine, and more. Kris Wilder, BCC is a Board-Certified Coach who was inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame in 2018. A National Representative for the University of New Mexico's Institute of Traditional Martial Arts (ITMA), he holds black belt rankings in karate, judo, and taekwondo, conducting seminars across the United States, Canada, and Europe. He has been interviewed by CNN, FOX, The Huffington Post, Thrillist, Nickelodeon, The Howard Stern Show, and more. Sun Tzu is an honorific that means "Master Sun." His mastery of military strategy was so exceptional that he reportedly transformed 180 courtesans into skilled soldiers in a single training session. While that episode was likely exaggerated, historians agree that King Ho-Lu, with Sun Tzu at his side, defeated the powerful Ch'u state in 506 BC before heading north to subdue the states of Qi and Chin and forge his empire. Mark Raffan, who wrote the foreword, is the founder of Negotiations Ninja. Ranked as one of the top 10 negotiation experts in the world by Global Guru's, he has been featured in Entrepreneur, Forbes, Supply and Demand Chain Executive Magazine, and appeared on dozens of podcasts.
In 1989 my husband Bill and I moved to a small town in France called La Varenne-Saint-Hilaire, a suburb southeast of Paris. Before leaving the States, Bill gifted me with a Nikon N2020 35mm film camera. We moved into a lovely home, three houses up from the Marne River that flows nearby. I loaded up my backpack with water, lots of film, and the desire to explore our new location. I spent hours in my darkroom developing my photos while Chewy, our cat, waited outside the door.Living in France was truly magical. The things those old buildings have seen and heard. Too bad they can't talk. Getting lost was typically unfortunate for anyone but not for me in Paris. I wandered endlessly and stumbled upon something new every time. Maybe because I knew this was not our permanent home, it made every day much more special.A feeling of awe would wash over me as I walked down an alleyway or some random cobblestone street as I let my mind wander and imagined some of the greatest minds ever had walked these same streets.Of course, we explored the obligatory things one must see and do-Versailles, Provence, Chantilly, etc. But we also visited towns we had never heard of, or someone from work would tell us, "You must see this place," and off we'd go. Sometimes a coin had to be flipped to see if we went left or right. We were never disappointed. It was like discovering something new-the sights, smells, and sounds different from one another-a photographer's paradise.Those were beautiful days that I would never forget; days spent exploring and appreciating the beauty of life all around me through my lens-capturing memories that will last forever in my mind's eye.The photos in this book are just some of the stories I wanted to share. Maybe they'll remind you of vacations taken, that first kiss, or when you walked down those same cobblestone streets or watched the sunset while drinking an espresso at a sidewalk cafe. Perhaps they'll inspire you to get out more and explore the world around you.
Ghazi Rayan, MD delivers this pivotal and immersive history detailing the growth of medical progress and its connection to the movement of people and ideas across borders. From the desk of acclaimed speaker and academic Ghazi Rayan, MD comes a broad and ambitious work of both history and culture.Beginning with the origins of medical practice in ancient history and continuing to the present day, our understanding of healthcare has relied largely on the free trade of ideas.

This work allows students of history and medicine to: - Study the evolution of medical thought across multiple periods of history, connecting individual achievements to methodological advancements in the field - Understand the significance of immigration for cultural and technological development - Tie the global historical narrative more closely to the story of American history - Recognize the current state of the American healthcare system, how it came to be, and the challenges it presently facesReaders will learn the history of medicine and healthcare over thousands of years, with a specific focus on U.S. history, including the Revolutionary era, the Civil War, and the great leaps taken at the turn of the century. Delivering a powerful, nonpolitical message, Dr. Rayan makes a compelling case for the importance of legal immigration to the future of progress.

As parents, we want the best for our children. We want them to grow up to be confident, capable, and successful individuals. But sometimes, we may underestimate the power of our support and belief in our children. When we believe in our kids, it can have a tremendous impact on their development and overall well-being. Believing in your kid means having faith in their abilities, encouraging them to pursue their dreams, and being their biggest cheerleader. It means acknowledging their strengths and weaknesses and helping them develop the skills they need to succeed. When children feel like their parents believe in them, they are more likely to take risks, set goals, and work towards achieving them. It can have a lasting impact on their self-esteem, confidence, and motivation. Children who feel supported by their parents are more likely to take on challenges, set goals, and work towards achieving them. So, let your child know that you believe in them and that you are there to support them every step of the way.

El Libro "La Hora de la Misericordia" muestra el significado de la Hora de la Misericordia, las 3 de la tarde, hora de la muerte de Jesús en la cruz. El Salvador pidió a Santa Faustina que se sumergiera, al menos por un breve momento, en su Pasión, y especialmente en su abandono en el momento de la agonía. Da indicaciones y promesas concretas para aquellos que lo acompañan en el momento de la muerte, permaneciendo espiritualmente en la Cruz a las tres de la tarde. Esta es la hora de la gran misericordia para el mundo entero. Jesús le dijo a Sta. Faustina: "Te permitiré penetrar en mi tristeza mortal. En esta hora nada le será negado al alma que lo pida por los méritos de mi Pasión" (Diario 1320).
