About the Book

The most potent weapon in any soldier's arsenal is deception. That you don't hear much about deception in warfare tells you something about how elusive and apparently rare this item is. Yet, as the ancient Chinese adage puts it, "There can never be enough deception in war." In fact, Sun Tzu, the noted Chinese strategist went further, saying "All warfare is based on deception." Victory and Deceit describes how it all works, from pre-history to the future.
