THE ART OF WAR: THE DEFINITIVE INTERPRETATION OF SUN TZU'S CLASSIC BOOK OF STRATEGY By Stephen F. Kaufman **Mint Condition**.

About this product

Product Information

Learn the strategy and philosophy of China's most celebrated military theorist with this highly readable and informative edition of The Art of War. The Art of War by Sun Tzu is the best known and most highly regarded book on military strategy ever written. Although its wisdom is from ancient China, its principles and advice are timeless--as applicable in the boardroom as they are on the battlefield. Unlike contemporary translations that have focused too heavily on applying this military classic to corporate conflicts, this definitive interpretation maintains the impact of the original. Written for martial artists by a martial artist, it is free of academic commentary and ambiguous metaphors, as Hanshi Kaufman uses straightforward prose to explain Sun Tzu's message. Like the original, this new interpretation is divided into thirteen sections, each presenting vital information on military strategy ranging from assessing opposing armies and the proper treatment of troops to the use of spies.

Great Book for Strategic Planning
My new 'boss' apparently had several years of military training. However, he had no clue how to run a retail business. I was given a copy of this book over 18 years ago & have been using it successfully ever since. Hopefully he will be able to understand how to apply these old strategies of Sun-Tzu, as translated by Kaufman, into building a business plan. As for me, I am following Chapter 9 and pursuing other territories. So this book is both a hello & a goodbye present for him.

Like a textbook of life
It's a book I am reading slowly, carefully and thoroughly. Its philosophy is a guide of life for being in control of your life in an honest, decent and spiritual way. This was recommended to me from a great lacrosse coach. I wish the print was a tad larger though, because my eyesight is not as good as it used to be... CD forthcoming.
