Art of War: the Illustrated Edition by Sun Tzu

Art of War: the Illustrated Edition by Sun Tzu

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.

Brigadier General Samuel B. Griffith II, U.S.M.C., was wounded at Guadalcanal and was awarded the Navy Cross in 1942 and the Army Distinguished Service Cross in 1943. He earned his Ph.D. in Chinese military history at New College, Oxford University, and published articles and essays in the New Yorker, Town and Country, and the Saturday Evening Post. He also published the book Battle for Guadalcanal and translated Mao Tse-Tung's On Guerrilla Warfare.
