Comments:
For example, answer one of these questions or any point that is of interest to you:
On page 47[1] Sun Tzu states that the leader of the army is the arbiter of the people’s fate.How does this related to our books and a topic from class?
On page 64 Sun Tzu states that there is nothing more difficult than tactical maneuvering.What do you think he means by this in relation to our books?
On page 45 of The Principles of War, Clausewitz gives three objectives of war. Apply the third objective to our books and a topic from class.
On page 61 of The Principles of War, Clausewitz talks about “a great difficulty.”How does this apply to Lou and Alex and Howard?
On page 61 and the following page of The Principles of War, Clausewitz addresses points that discuss his topic of “friction.” Comment on one of these points in relation to Lou and Alex and Howard.
You can also apply questions to another situation if you want:campus club, work experience, sports team, and the like.
