His smart, sage advice, captured forever in the twin classic treatises – the \u003cem\u003eArthashastra\u003c\/em\u003e and the \u003cem\u003eNitishastra\u003c\/em\u003e – has both the detailing of a draughtsman and the wide-ranging wisdom of a genius. Scholar, teacher, visionary, political strategist, economic philosopher and royal adviser, Chanakya put forth invaluable lessons that changed the course of history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHumiliated by Dhana Nanda, the ruler of Magadha, Chanakya turned adversity into strength and challenge into opportunity. Through clever diplomatic manoeuvres and wise confrontations, he choreographed young Chandragupta’s rise as the founder of the Mauryan Empire, the first of its kind in power and territorial extent. Melding his knowledge with a shrewd observation of life, Chanakya outlined political and economic philosophies in a long-lasting body of pithy truths. And that is why, even centuries later, his work and his words matter in today’s world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis book brings together the transformative incidents that shaped Chanakya’s life, and his most important sayings.
