New modern translation of this bestselling classic from Sun Tzu that also includes the original Chinese text
Written in the 6th century BC, Sun Tzu’s The Art of War is still used as a book of military strategy today. Napoleon, Mae Zedong, General Vo Nguyen Giap and General Douglas MacArthur all claimed to have drawn inspiration from it. And beyond the world of war, business and management gurus have also applied Sun Tzu’s ideas to office politics and corporate strategy. Using a new translation by James Trapp and including editorial notes, this edition of The Art of War lays the original Chinese text opposite the modern English translation. The book contains the full original 13 chapters on such topics as laying plans, attacking by stratagem, weaponry, terrain and the use of spies. Sun Tzu addresses different campaign situations, marching, energy and how to exploit your enemy’s weaknesses. Of immense influence to great leaders across millennia, The Art of War is a classic text richly deserving this exquisite edition.
Review
Amber Books are quickly becoming a "must buy" publisher for me. I absolutely love their non-fiction books and James Trapp's new translation of Sun Tzu's 'The Art of War' is no exception. The book is well-formatted with useful and informative footnotes that give the text greater context. Whilst I cannot read Chinese, I really appreciated the inclusion of quotes and text written in Chinese as many English translated editions of The Art of War don't adequately acknowledge the original language in my opinion. --Kel Wheeldon, The Storygraph
