<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In a time of endless chaos and bloodshed, when the only law was the law of the sword, a peasant boy named Hideyoshi dreamed of becoming a samurai. Despite his lack of strength and size, he learned to outthink and outmaneuver every foe to become not just a samurai, but one of the greatest military and civic leaders Japan has ever known. Hideyoshi's timeless leadership secrets offer effective strategies for succeeding in business, con?ict, and life, and are destined to take their place beside such classics as <i>The Book of Five Rings</i> and <i>The Art of War</i>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Hideyoshi is no typical business guru, but his lessons have inspired generations of executives. . . .
