1.The Art of War by: Sun Tzu, Sun Zi May 01, 2006
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.00 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.88
I was expecting a huge tome full of Confuscian statements which are allegorical to warfare. What I received was a 69-page book of short instructions which are dirrectly about warfare, but in many cases allegorical to life. Possibly they're all in some way applicable to the day-to-day, the fighting with fire section does seem a bit specialised, but doubtless the scales will fall from my eyes at some stage and I will be able to use its teachings in buying tangerines from waitrose. The best thing about the book is the ability to spice up conversation. Never again will I use a hackneyed marketing phrase where something from Sun Tzu will work. Brilliant.

For Sun Tzu, warfare is above all a question of psychology, before strategy and tactics come into play. The art of war is the art to deceive: 'Apparent confusion is a product of good order; apparent cowardice, of courage; apparent weakness, of strength'. Sun Tzu is a master of psychological warfare: sap the morale of your enemy and be cleverer (wisdom, not force alone). For him, 'supreme excellence is to subdue the enemy without fighting.' His strategy is based on foreknowledge (spying) in order to know the strength and weaknesses (political, geographical, defensive, offensive) of your enemy. And if you are not strong enough, you should be cleverer through diplomacy. His tactics are flexibility, ... Read More:

7.The Art of War by Sun Tzu - Special Edition by: Sun Tzu 2005-03
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £9.43
... Sun Tzu's "Art of War" is the first known treatise on how to wage war in a professional manner. This little book was written some 2,500 years ago and has been considered to be the seminal work on warfare by nearly every military expert in the world since it became known to Western Civilization. Sun Tzu pointed out that war is a terrible thing which should be avoided, if at all possible, but, when unavoidable should be carried out so as to minimize the destruction. He was the first to advocate that war should not be undertaken for trivial reasons and that it should be conducted by professionals who know how to do it right - who understand that no one gains from unnecessary death and destruction. The minute details of his advice ... Read More:

The fact that when I purchased this it had a cellophane wrapping so the cover didn't get messed up by others just browsing (and you also couldn't look inside) gives an idea to the quality of this book. The author doesn't just stick to Sun Tzu's 13 Chapters, he also provides an in-depth introduction on the scholarly arguments that have been raging for many hundreds of years as to when The Art of War was written, did Sun Tzu write it, and did Sun Tzu actually exist. Full of beautiful illustrations as well as quotes from other recognised army theorists, this is a book that is well worth the full price I paid for it.
