Here's an excerpt from the Author's Note:

…if you want to use history like a tool in your day-to-day survival, you must understand the underlying principles of history and how to alloy those principles in your life. This is not a scholarly book. It's not a work of philosophy—historical or otherwise. Rather, it is a practical work specifically designed to be readable and understandable so that even someone who hates history can use it like a tool.
