Product Description

Product Description

The masterpiece of the sage Sun Tzu is a military treatise written in China more than 2500 years ago. He recognized that we live in a world of conflict, which could not be ignored or denied but had to be mastered and understood. Sun Tzu's profound wisdom is not limited to military applications - his aphorisms offer important advice for dealing with other realms of human conflict, such as the pyschological tensions of everyday life and the difficulties of any joint endeavour, including business ventures. Arranged into 13 chapters from Estimates to the Employment of Secret Agents, and enhanced by beautiful calligraphy, The Art of War is more relevant now than ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for non-Chinese beginning learners, 31 Oct 2009
By Tan Wee Hoe (Coventry, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought this illustrated edition of The Art of War for a young friend--a British teenager. I chose this edition to introduce Sun Tzu's ideology because I expect the graphics and illustrations to set the background (both the historical and geographical background) for the writing. The original text in classical Chinese is only six thousand over words, but conventional books on The Art of War is either a compilation of extracts plus interpretation or translation plus examples of application. Both types are not suitable to beginning learners who have limited understanding of both the historical and geographic background in ancient China. Hence this book can fill in the lacuna.
