This timeless classic on strategy and victory has guided soldiers, generals, martial artists, and seekers throughout the ages. It is the master key to power and victory and is the most important book ever written on overcoming obstacles and defeating your foes. Each one of the thirteen chapters is devoted to a different aspect of warfare, making it the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time.It forms the basis for this volume which also includes a new Introduction by PEN Award-winning historian, Mitch Horowitz.At its heart, The Art of War is a Taoist work. Its core principle is to blend with the natural order of things. That is the book’s approach to conflict and friction as it is to restoration and maintenance of peace.Considered the seminal work on the philosophy of successful leadership, The Art of War is as applicable to contemporary business as it is to war and has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as politics, psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words. It is required reading in most military academies around the world.Given the book’s vast number of modern reproductions and its ubiquitous appeal, The Art of War may, in our generation, be even more widely read than the similarly mysterious and almost certainly older work on whose insights it rests: the Tao Te Ching, attributed to the mythical 6th century BC sage Lao Tzu, meaning “Old Master.” Herbert Giles, the scholar in 1910 produced his own painstaking, elegant, and enticingly spare translation of The Art of War. Giles’ sculpted and meticulous prose set the standard for nearly every translation that followed, of which there were dozens.Discover why The Art of War is the definitive master key to power and victory and let it help you navigate a world where friction is inevitable, and you will find yourself at times needing to prevail. Learn how to achieve, what we all seek, victory with honor.
