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.

3.The Art of War (History & Warfare) by: Sun Zi, Ralph D. Sawyer, Tzu Sun January 21, 1994

Today many of Sun Tzu quotas are floating around mixed with Shakespeare and the Bible. And as with many of the quote they are out of context and misleading. The quoter usually thinks repeating the word is some sort of magic. This particular book spends more time trying to identify and qualify SunTzu's writings than just quoting them. I will not go through all the arguments as to who "wrote what when" or "translated what when" as you can read this for yourself. Another distraction is the attempt to show how the book was applied or not applied in recent wars. This may be interesting to someone who's intention is to apply the theories of Sun Tzu; however it is not his writing but someone else's interpretation of its application. Read More:

The book is very easy to read but is missing some very important background information about Sun Tzu. This is not for the military book reader.

9.The Art of War by: Sun Zi 2001-01
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £11.05
I've read several versions, ranging from the gibbering incoherent to ... well, this one. Here is craftsmanship of the highest order. The Denma group have rendered the original text into clear and understandable English. This hardback version comes with excellent annexes illuminating and exploring the text, and explaining the process they used. It's also just the right size for a book you're going to read, rather than leave on the shelf. If you're unfamiliar with Sun Tzu the book revealed in this translation may not be what you expect. This is a startlingly practical handbook on how to approach and tackle conflict - and win. Sun Tzu's goal was victory, albeit with the clear understanding that true victory means you have gained something worth the ... Read More:

10.Sun Tzu: The New Translation by: Sun Zi September 23, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.18
This translation of Sun Tzu makes sense to the martial artist that practices the internal arts. It is a first class research. After reading five other translations in two different languages I found what I was looking for.
