É como tenente do serviço secreto inglês que Lawrence inicia, em 1914, sua carreira militar no Oriente Médio. A identificação com a causa árabe, cultivada quando ainda trabalhava como arqueólogo às margens do rio Eufrates, torna-o peça importante no movimento árabe contra a dominação turca; parte da manobra britânica para vencer a Alemanha, e sua aliada, a Turquia, durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial.

They may not appear to be savvier acquirers, more adept marketers, or bolder pioneers, yet they integrate new businesses better, launch products more successfully, and open new markets with fewer mishaps.
