Product Description
Compiled more than two thousand years ago by a mysterious warrior-philosopher, The Art of War is still perhaps the most prestigious and influential book of strategy in the world. As a study of the anatomy of organizations in conflict, The Art of War applies to competition and conflict in general, on every level from the interpersonal to the international. Its aim is invincibility, victory without battle, and unassailable strength through understanding the physics, politics, and psychology of conflict. This translation features Sun Tzu’s original text in its entirety along with commentary from classical Chinese military thinkers.
1 CD, 1 hour, abridged.

“The Art of War” is a book that any Wall Street dealmaker needs to read. It also is obvious that the true lessons of this book demonstrate precisely why George Bush was as right as rain when he went into Afghanistan and Iraq. Sun Tzu writes not about popularity but strength and victory. I would much rather America be strong and in control, winning the War on Terror as we are, than a crippled giant, which is the way many countries might like us – until our crippled condition makes it harder to defend them from obliteration as we have doner many times. I’ll take respect over love in when it comes to geo-politics.

I read this book because I was told that “It was a great read and many of the principles could be applied in the business world.” Do not waste your time and money on this book if you think it will somehow offer insight or useful advice that can be applied in business.

This book is a 101 guide to being a good military strategist, if you already have spent allot of time researching Military Science such as I have then I wouldnt bother reading it because allot of it you will already know, but if you are a beginner in Military Science then I would recommend this as a first read, however I wouldnt purchase it because the book is so old it can be downloaded free of the internet.

I ordered a new book, but got a book that had brown/red spots on the edge of the pages when you look at the book closed. To me the definition of new means no damage no defects, guess each person has there own interpretation.
