Some stupid book by a chinese guy a few hundred years ago which lots of ppl have started reading now. Those bigshot execs and CEOs praised the book , and everyone wants to read it now, just as everyone these days follows Lindsay Lohan.
Anyhow, it says things like, when the enemy is strong, spread your forces and use gorilla warfare and attack his supply lines, and when he's weak, attack and protect your supply lines and stuff. If everyone followed it, everything would end up in a stalemate

MODIFY: Everyone has read it, and if you say you haven't read it or don'tlike it , people look at you as if you crawled from under some flat stone or something.

Sun Tzu wrote The Art of War. Which contains basic concepts and ideas that can allow you to win a war. It is not a book of tactics, but basic theory that can be applied to any conflict.

The Art Of War, written by Sun Tzu, is probably the oldest book on military strategy in existence, and one of the best.
This is a link to a good outline of the book:

The only one I have read that even comes close is the one by Julius Caesar that he wrote about the Gallic Wars.
