    The Art of War for Women
    by Chin-Ning Chu
    THE ART OF WAR FOR WOMEN brings the eternal wisdom of Taoist philosopher-general Sun Tzu to an underserved audience looking for strategies that will help them thrive in their careers. While more women are succeeding in business than ever before, corporate America is still very much a boys’ club. This book, the first distillation of The Art of War created specifically for women, offers specific strategies on how to win in the corporate world by "kicking some butt with those stilettos."

Filled with short, to-the-point chapters, including "Win First, Then Fight" and "Turn Your Liabilities into Assets," THE ART OF WAR FOR WOMEN contains a wealth of real-life stories of women who have utilized Sun Tzu’s advice in their climb up the corporate ladder.

    Sun Tzu’s The Art of War is the most influential book on strategy ever published, selling tens of millions of copies worldwide in several editions. Written by today’s foremost authority on Sun Tzu, THE ART OF WAR FOR WOMEN is sure to become a classic in its own right.

    Do Less, Achieve More
    by Chin-Ning Chu
    For anyone tired of chasing ever-elusive desires, of doing more only to find that more needs doing, and of making more money only to need more money, best-selling author Chin-Ning Chu shows you that life was meant to be easy, if you know the secrets.

    From the best-selling author of The Working Woman's Art of War, comes an important and timely book about the side of success that most don't know about —the power of selective yielding, of surrendering to a successful destiny, and of getting what you want by not wanting it too much.

    Using Carl Jung's famous parable of the rainmaker as a framework, Chin-Ning Chu explains universal truths about the nature of effort, success, willpower, detachment, "creating luck," and more. Illustrating the four "secrets of the rainmaker" with rich anecdotes from history, personal experience, and popular culture, Ching-Ning explains how to create success by attaining inner harmony, how to partner effort with ease, how to make peace with time, and how to stop reacting and start restfully controlling the events of your life.

    The Asian Mind Game
    byChin-Ning Chu
    This book, by East-West marketing consultant Chin-ning Chu, is must reading for any Westerner in business, government, or academia who negotiates in the Orient or wants to.

    It is the first to reveal to Westerners the deep secrets of the Asian psyche that influence Asian behavior in business, politics, lifestyle, and battle.

    Ms. Chu points out that Asian mind games have become so finely tuned over the centuries that Americans seldom realize that Asians view the marketplace (and by extension, the world) as a battlefield, and act accordingly.

    She has extracted the principles of successful negotiations from centuries-old Chinese texts that have influenced all of Asia, and provides her readers with examples of their application in the modern world.

    In the Western world, the ability to formulate cunning and subtle strategies for getting your own way in business, politics, and everyday life is regarded as a matter of intuition. In Asia, however, strategic thinking is a formal discipline studied by people from all walks of life. Amazing as it may seem, contemporary Asians base their outlook and behavior on the teachings of the ancients. In China, even children are familiar with the "36 Strategies," formulated by Sun Tzu, a famous military strategist, in the fourth century B.C. ,p> Throughout Asia today, business people as well as political figures study Sun Tzu's Art of War and apply its strategies to all their activities, while Americans read The One-Minute Manager and All I Really Need to Know I Learned In Kindergarten. No wonder, Ms. Chu comments, that when it comes to business and political negotiations, the Chinese refer to Americans with a word that means "innocent children."

    Ms. Chu brilliantly analyses how Chinese thought and culture have affected Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, and how Japanese conquest and culture have had their effect on the rest of Asia.

    With United States trade and political alliances shifting increasingly to the Pacific rim, it becomes ever more urgent to understand the Asian mind. Ms. Chu, born in China and educated in Taiwan, spells out the makeup of the Asian psyche as no Westerner could.
