Thick Black Theory: Forbidden Strategies For VictoryThick Black Theory: Forbidden Strategies For Victory

The first and only translation of Li Zongwu's seminal work on "black" strategy. Thick Black Theory is a clasic treatise on Strategy, similar to Sun Tzu's The Art Of War. However, Thick Black Theory is more simple, easier to understand, contains immediately actionable material, and is a higher level of strategic abstraction than The Art Of War. Anyone who loves The Art Of War, Machiavelli, The 48 Laws Of Power, Etc. will also love Thick Black Theory.

Wallace Stevens and the Aesthetics of AbstractionWallace Stevens and the Aesthetics of AbstractionEdward Ragg's study is the first to examine the role of abstraction throughout the work of Wallace Stevens. By tracing the poet's interest in abstraction from Harmonium through to his later works, Ragg argues that Stevens only fully appreciated and refined this interest within his later career. Ragg's detailed close-readings highlight the poet's absorption of late nineteenth century and early twentieth century painting, as well as the examples of philosophers and other poets' work.
