Winning for the benefit of all concerned. There is no other way! In a synthesis of the teachings of Musashi's Book of Five Rings and Sun Tzu's Art of War (two of the author's best selling books) Mr. Kaufman expresses the views of the masters to address realistic strategies for the development of negotiation skills for todays world without ambiguous metaphor and academic phraseology. This book readily dispels the naive notion of a win win mentality. The inlcuded exercises empower the reader to learn the true meaning of universality in negotiations while focusing on the attitudes needed for personal victory. The reader learns from a distinguished martial arts grandmaster and educator how to understand individual motivation while being introduced to the concept of the Spirit of the Thing Itself that is the definitive force of the unverse.

<p>"Power comes to a man in various ways. Undoubtedly it is granted to a man by his own personal choice. It is based on his desire to rule or to be ruled. The extent to which that desire is expressed will be manifest in his life. It does not matter if it is the desire to control an entire country or a desire to control a small faction with a private interest. It depends on a man's thoughts and the manner in which he accepts the truth of his own greatness." The Shogun Scrolls were written in the late twelfth century by Hidetomo Nakadai, a scholar and regent in the court of Minamoto Yoritomo, the first shogun of Japan and one of the world's most ruthless generals. Recently victorious over rival clans, the shogun required Nakadai to provide detailed advice on governing all aspects of the realm. The resulting treatise can today be used as a guide for personal development and motivation.</p>
