Pros: offers ancient Chinese wisdom on how to prevent unnecessary war Cons: some leaders don't apply this wisdom
I believe we can fly back through time 2500 years for wisdom in The Art of War that many of our leaders are sadly, horribly lacking today. This review was first written a few years ago, but not exactly placed in the right place (the translator...
Pros: Valuable lessons from an ancient master. Cons: Requires study to glean the book's secrets.
The Art of War was written five hundred years before the time of Christ. In this work, Chinese philosopher turned general Sun Tzu , lays out his grand strategy of waging war. Warfare truly is a form of art if practiced according to the...

Pros: fantastic fusion of military genius and Eastern philosophies Cons: eagerly misappropriated by dunderheaded powertrippers who mistake business for warfare

Pros: Best book on military strategy. Ever. Cons: None that I can think of.
Remarkably, this book, the very one which graced the shelves of ancient japan and china, is on epinions.com. This book, more than any other, has contributed to the rise of generals. It's simple, poetic prose is excelently suited for any tactician, or...
Pros: Eastern thinking, classic Cons: some part can become boring to read

Pros: One of the best eastern philosophy books. Perfect Addition to any library. Cons: Not everyone has read it. :-(
The Art of War was written by a Chinese Taoist military strategist, Sun Tzu, thousands of years ago in China in a time of warring states. This book is a strategy guide of budding generals with all of Sun Tzu's incites.
