Each of the thirteen chapters touches on a specific aspect of military science, including conventional warfare, guerrilla tactics and the role of espionage. It continues to be studied in military academies around the world, including the prestigious West Point. The Art of War has had a profound impact not just on the military affairs of men. Business and political leaders also find inspiration in this book, as its strategic principles apply broadly.
