Sun Tzu was one of the greatest army generals who ever lived. He wrote The Art Of War in the fifth century BC and yet his words are still resoundingly relevant to our modern lives.
His writings on aspects of warfare from the laying of plans to the tactics and psychology of manoeuvering an army, to the proper use of spies, resonate for us in today's world of cut-throat, ruthless business. With James Clavell's insightful foreword and notes, this classic is widely seen as a necessity on the bookshelf of military leaders and boardroom executives alike.
