John Lewis Gaddis, the distinguished historian of the Cold War, has for almost two decades co-taught grand strategy at Yale University with his colleagues Charles Hill and Paul Kennedy. Now, in On Grand Strategy, Gaddis reflects on what he has learned. In chapters extending from the ancient world through World War II, Gaddis assesses grand strategic theory and practice in Herodotus, Thucydides, Sun Tzu, Octavian/Augustus, St. Augustine, Machiavelli, Elizabeth I, Philip II, the American Founding Fathers, Clausewitz, Tolstoy, Lincoln, Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Isaiah Berlin. On Grand Strategy applies the sharp insights and wit readers have come to expect from Gaddis to times, places, and people he’s never written about before. For anyone interested in the art of leadership, On Grand Strategy is, in every way, a master class.
大师的作品,从另一个角度 解说战略
评分很多其他的评论和我的观点根本不一样嘛。我读到的是要适当降低自己过高的目标, 来平衡自己有限的能力。我就奇怪写“敢为天下先”是怎么读的?薛西斯一世难道不是“敢为天下先”吗。
评分加迪斯近距离观察美国大战略制定,读透古今大战略的成败,向年轻人传授大战略并相互辩驳激发的思维练习。 狭义的大战略服务于国家,广义的大战略则服务于每个人。穷则独善吾身,达则兼济天下,就是一种人生大战略。 人生大战略就是你怎么协调必然是有限的能力与有可能是无限的抱负?有意识也好无意识也好,你一定是制定并运用自己的人生大战略,运用你的能力、资源来实现你所认为的人生价值。 问题很简单,做起来却很难。就像克劳塞维茨在《战争论》里所说,战争里的所有事都很简单,但简单的东西最难。人生也一样。
评分刺猬与狐狸,浪漫与现实。要成事别太轴
评分印象比较深的观点是,战略是复杂中抽象简单,简单得可以迅速掌握,在战场可没有时间再分析了,这个抽象是刺猬的工作,战场应变则是狐狸的工作
