Produktbeschreibung
Kluth presents a dynamic and exciting way to understand success and failure through the life of Hannibal, one of history's greatest generals. And the epic choices he and his opponents made--on the battlefield and elsewhere in life--offer lessons about responding to our victories and our defeats that are as relevant today as they were more than 2,000 years ago.
The life of Hannibal, the Carthaginian general who crossed the Alps with his army in 218 BCE, is the stuff of legend. And the epic choices he and his Roman enemies made on the battlefield and in life offer timeless lessons to us today about how we should respond to our own victories and defeats. Inspired by ancient history, Hannibal and Me explores the triumphs and disasters in our lives by examining the decisions made by Hannibal and others, including Albert Einstein, Eleanor Roosevelt, Steve Jobs, Ernest Shackleton, and Paul Cézanne. Kluth shows why some overcome failure and others succumb to it, and why some fall victim to success while others thrive on it. The result is a page-turning adventure tale, a compelling human drama, and an insightful guide to understanding behavior.
