About the Book

Since the turn of the century, we have seen hopes of a new era of peace shattered by the 9/11 attack on the US. We have witnessed the US become embroiled in a divisive and seemingly unwinnable war in Iraq.. We have looked on as new nuclear rivalries have sprung up with Iran and North Korea. We have also seen Europe struggle to define its place in the New World Order. And we have observed the balance of world focus shift towards China and India as they have continued their unprecedented economic rise. What is the significance of all of this? Are these random events or is there an underlying pattern? What is required of leaders and individuals to propel the world in a more positive direction? The Master Strategist provides the means to decipher these changes, offering unique insights into the issues and patterns that are defining the future, and pointing the way to strategies for a freer and more peaceful and prosperous world.

About the Author :
Ketan Patel is one of the leading minds of his generation. Head of the strategic group at Goldman Sachs, he is the chief futurologist for the firm. His unique insights into why the world works the way it does, in terms of politics, economics, warfare and business enables him to reveal to Goldman Sachs' clients 'how to leapfrog the rest of the world, not catch up'. This extraordinary new book will set the agenda for decades to come.

Review :
An important book for those of us who strive to create a more peaceful and unified world Provides an extraordinary framework to assess ourselves. More than just a book on strategy, it is a book on life itself Ketan Patel's bold holistic approach to 'strategies' reveals how narrow-minded we have been . . . This intellectually exciting book will serve as the reference work of strategy for many years to come. . . . distinguished by the power of his thinking on global themes of strategic importance ... his insights and wisdom can be applied to business, politics and life. This elegantly written book is both a wake-up call and a positive inspiration for strategists and policymakers - alarming at times but also enjoyable. As I write this down, I'm struck - not for the first time - by the loftiness of Patel's outlook. The book in particular gives the impression he has somehow channelled the voice of God.
