Book excerpt: Winning at competitive games requires a results-oriented mindset that many players are simply not willing to adopt. This book walks players through the entire process: how to choose a game and learn basic proficiency, how to break through the mental barriers that hold most players back, and how to handle the issues that top players face. It also includes a complete analysis of Sun Tzu's book The Art of War and its applications to games of today. These foundational concepts apply to virtually all competitive games, and even have some application to "real life." Trade paperback. 142 pages.

Book excerpt: Foreign Affairs Best of Books of 2021 "Book of the Week" on Fareed Zakaria GPS Financial Times Best Books of 2020 The definitive account of how regime change in the Middle East has proven so tempting to American policymakers for decades—and why it always seems to go wrong. "It's a first-rate work, intelligently analyzing a complex issue, and learning the right lessons from history." —Fareed Zakaria Since the end of World War II, the United States has set out to oust governments in the Middle East on an average of once per decade—in places as diverse as Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan (twice), Egypt, Libya, and Syria. The reasons for these interventions have also been extremely diverse, and the methods by which the United States pursued regime change have likewise been highly varied, ranging from diplomatic pressure alone to outright military invasion and occupation. What is common to all the operations, however, is that they failed to achieve their ultimate goals, produced a range of unintended and even catastrophic consequences, carried heavy financial and human costs, and in many cases left the countries in question worse off than they were before. Philip H. Gordon's Losing the Long Game is a thorough and riveting look at the U.S. experience with regime change over the past seventy years, and an insider’s view on U.S. policymaking in the region at the highest levels. It is the story of repeated U.S. interventions in the region that always started out with high hopes and often the best of intentions, but never turned out well. No future discussion of U.S. policy in the Middle East will be complete without taking into account the lessons of the past, especially at a time of intense domestic polarization and reckoning with America's standing in world.

Book excerpt: If what you're doing now is not producing the results you want -- you are playing a losing game. If you want things to get better you've got to change that losing game. This book will show you how. Now updated for our times, Always Change a Losing Game has been published on four continents and continues to be popular and useful.

This is a book for people struggling to be successful and feeling a lack of control. The book gives hope and encouragement because it focuses on all the things we can control -- primarily the way we think, the way we behave and the lifestyle choices we make. It illustrates the author's belief that we have more control than we think. The book was purposely written in everyday language to make it both easy to read and reassuring. The connection to sports provides a fresh approach for many people who need to think about their health, relationships, problem solving, self-esteem and productivity in a new way. Always Change a Losing Game explains how to make changes in your life when work or relationships are not working out. At times, changing a losing game requires vision and risk taking. But just continuing in a rut guarantees that things won't get better. If what you're doing and how you are living are not producing the results you want, you are playing a losing game and if you want things to get better you've got to change that losing game. This book is your key to success.
