Tactics eh...

the prince-by machiavelli is an amazing book writen near the end of the renaisance on how to rule a country or state. Some find his ways selfish. But his reasining, use of examples and the detail is amazing

as for novels, i suggest all quiet on the western front, schindlers list, and both animal farm and 1984 are good books regarding the outlook of a totalitarian and communist society

Well there are other good books about war that are written in Ancient China as well.

They are

1) Wei Liao Zi Art of War
2) 36 Strategies
3) Wu Zi Art of War
4) Three Strategies
5) Question and Answer between Tang Tai Zhong and Li Jing
6) Sima Rangju Art of War
7) Six Teachings
8) Zhuge Liang Art of War
9) Sun Bin Art of War

All these are written in Chinese but I have a few of them translated into English so that most people can enjoy reading and benefit from it. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
