Reader comments

The Machiavellian tactics mentioned in this book are very interesting and can make us more wise when dealing with others. However, I don't really like some of the views in it, such as teaching people to calculate others. The author Zhang Juzheng is indeed very wise, but some of his views feel too utilitarian. Overall, it is still worth reading and can increase your knowledge.

Those Who Play Politics Are All Evil. Please Give Me This Book so That I Can Understand It. Random Comments Are Retarded.

I want to read a book similar to "Game Theory". Regarding politics, pure knowledge is also fine. The officials don't have the nerve to recommend it? The novel is about a power struggle involving people cannibalizing people. The more realistic and real the better. The palace fights about business and house fighting are too low-level, so don't get involved with it. Reform and govern the country, military category recommendation
