The Ruler's Guide by Chinghua Tang
The wisdom of China's greatest emperor brought to an English audience for the first time
Deep, dazzling, and destined to be a long bestseller.. This is the best book of its kind since Sun Tzu's The Art of War. The Ruler's Guide is a little masterpiece, ancient in its origin but full of wisdom for the 21st century. -- Dan Rather, former anchor of CBS News and multiple Emmy and Peabody Award Winner
This brilliantly presented book is a jewel. The governing principles of one of history's most accomplished rulers and China's golden age emperor have never been seen in English - until now. And the intervening centuries have only validated the philosophy of Tang Taizong. You will be lifted and inspired by the elegant simplicity. -- Jon Huntsman, Jr, 2012 presidential candidate, former Ambassador to China
The Ruler's Guide has much to pass on to us, not the least of which is an explanation of the Chinese understanding of virtues, which gives us much to consider about how virtues, rather than harsh laws, make a vibrant society. -- James Webb, former US Senator and author of The Emperor's General
Riveting and powerful insights on leadership. It's worth reading for the boardroom or in combat. -- Barry R. McCaffrey, former US Army Four-Star General, CiC US Southern Command

Chinghua Tang grew up during Mao’s violent Cultural Revolution and was only able to make it to the West in 1980 when he won the BBC World Service English Competition. That accomplishment brought him to England where he studied at the LSE. Subsequently, he traveled to the U.S. and became the first citizen of the People’s Republic to earn an MBA from Harvard’s Business School. Chinghua has authored four books in Chinese: a memoir of his time at Harvard, two books on investing, and 'A Treasury of China’s Wisdom'.
