Review
"Thomas Cleary's translation of Sun Tzu's 2,000-year-old "Art of War" makes immediately relevant one of the greatest Chinese classical texts. There's not a dated maxim or vague prescription in it. 'To win without fighting is best, ' Sun Tzu said. For him, war was coeval with life. Absorb this book, and you can throw out all those contemporary books about management leadership."-- "Newsweek" "Sun Tzu has won disciples in recent years among foreign executives, diplomats, politicians, athletes, and generals because of his simple insights on how to effortlessly vanquish an opponent."-- "Christian Science Monitor" "This volume of ancient Chinese wisdom is consistently rated higher than most modern leadership books."-- "Inc." ""The Art of War "is on the nightstands of so many movers and shakers."-- "Rolling Stone"
