Publisher Description

This Chinese treatise on war was written by Sun Tzu in the 6th century BC. Each one of the 13 chapters is devoted to a different aspect of warfare, making it the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time. Studied by generals from Napoleon to Rommel it is still one of the most influential works on the subject and is required reading in most military academies around the world. Although it was meant to be a practical guide to warfare in the age of chariots, this seminal work on the philosophy of successful leadership is as applicable to contemporary business as it is to war, and has become increasingly popular today among corporate and political leaders.

Quotes

  • “The most useful and important book ever written for aspiring leaders.” 

    — Toronto Sun-Times
  • “As a reflection of the Chinese mind, this little work is as relevant as any Confucian classic.” 

    — Times (London)
  • “A brief tract on strategy that has been admired in China for centuries. Some of Mao Tse Tung’s most eloquent thoughts are merely rehashes of Sun-tzu and his interpreters.” 

    — Los Angeles Herald Examiner
