The Art of War

A great read that goes beyond military strategy. His lessons on leadership, strategy, and dealing with conflict apply to business and life in general. The book is filled with simple, yet powerful advice on how to outthink your competition and make better decisions. Even though it’s from ancient times, the principles are still incredibly relevant today. It’s a quick read, but one that will make you think differently about how to approach challenges and achieve success. A must-read for anyone looking to think strategically.

This book is really powerful, 170 pages…Even though it was written a long time ago, the advice still makes sense today — not just for war, but for work, life, and strategy in general. The writing is clear and easy to understand in this translation. It makes you think differently about planning, timing, and dealing with people. Definitely worth reading if you like smart, no-nonsense advice. Im very happy with this purchase!!!

This book is hard to put down once you pick it up. It contains many life lessons you don't expect to get. I bought it for all my favorite people. This author writes the version you want; whether paperback, hard cover, or electronic.

Great book

A lot of interesting ideas are in this book. However, it is a little difficult to grasp the ideas and apply it to today's world without rereading the book multiple times, thinking about it, and discussing your ideas with others.

Reading this text through the lens of Christian doctrine has shown that many archetypal beliefs exist among men of faith. Within this text, the man of war is presented as a well-disciplined and wise individual who abhors war. For him, war is the last option and not the first. This ancient book of wisdom contrast with the practices of many modern world leaders. The translator's introduction often references the Tao te Ching which might also be excellent reading for the man of faith who hopes that the can communicate his beliefs with others who have a background in Eastern philosophy (1 Corinthians 9:19-23). If sustained peace ever enters this modern era, it will come from the body of faithful, peaceful, and well-disciplined men. Much like Gideon and other Biblical accounts, the text states that the greatest warrior can win a war without fighting a battle. Unfortunately, this text often is read by greedy, power-hungry individuals who do not seek peace and are misled by the title. The teachings which I contains can be used for "good" or "evil". With this text, one can heal "difficult" situations or promote anarchy as the modern physician can heal or kill with prescription medicine. This is a powerful text and excellent reading.

The Art of War written by Sun Tzu (translation by Thomas Cleary,) brought out amazing abilities to understand people, especially those with whom I had personal conflicts. At age 64, when I began training in Iaido, the art of the Japanese sword, my Sensei gifted me her copy of this book. Throughout the next 2 years of instruction, I developed principles and strategies, not previously realized, for victory in all areas of my life. This book is must read for everyone. In this year 2021, it is especially important.

Everyone talks about the 48 laws of Power, but this is the holy grail of game and strategy. I love the 48 Laws but the Reigns Supreme for a reason

Good quality

The Art of War is a deeply insightful and thought-provoking book with timeless lessons that can be applied to many areas of life. It is concise yet impactful, leaving plenty of room for personal interpretation and reflection. A must-read for anyone seeking a unique perspective on strategy and decision-making.

A must have book for all the book enthusiasts out there. This edition is having the genuine translation by Sun Tzu without any interference/ editing by other authors. I would recommend this book only as there as various editions available in the market. Prompt delivery by Amazon and the quality of book is also top notch. I would insist amazon to include bookmarks with all the orders of books made from their site.

small book , paper is fine , i guess its a pocket edition should have stated that in the title tho unless i missed it. art of war itself is a must read for every one really especially young men
