Description
The Art of War is a 6th Century BC Chinese treatise on war and military strategy known for its timeless examples of strategy and planning. There is intense interest in this ancient work since it teaches how to be victorious in conflict and that the final victory ultimately is to see war as an effort to win minds and hearts rather than a mere acquisition of territory and wealth.
The Art of War by Sun Tzu is a two thousand year old work, reputedly authored by a famous military general and strategist who lived in ancient China. Apart from this, he is also revered and respected in many South Asian countries as a learned philosopher. The book is divided into thirteen chapters and there is historical evidence to prove that it was written over a period of time and perhaps with many borrowings and collaborations with other similar works of the period. However, it was also heavily criticized by generations of scholars and thinkers in later centuries as it advocated deception and spying as accepted strategies in war. Many scholars have also doubted whether a figure such as Sun Tzu existed at all and have found several inaccuracies in terms of the timeframe in which the book was supposed to have been written. Many feel that the original work may have undergone several revisions over the centuries before being consolidated in its present form. Whatever the nature of these opinions The Art of War remains a fascinating, valuable and extremely interesting work.
Each chapter explores a different aspect of war. Beginning with elaborate plans that should be put in place before the commencement of war, the book goes on to describe different situations in which wars are fought, the kind of strategies employed in various types of terrain, understanding the nature of the enemy and finally positioning, timing and methods of attack.
For present day corporate warriors, The Art of War is an invaluable text. Business management, sports and politics are some of the fields where it has found immense application. Conflict resolution theory has been immeasurably enhanced with the addition of Sun Tzu's millennia-old tried and tested methods. It also provides valuable assistance in the grooming of leaders, understanding and appreciating the opponent and leveraging one's own advantages.
The Art of War provides compelling reading for anyone who is interested in the dynamics of negotiation, competition, mediation, planning and arbitration.

I can not download it
Honestly couldn't keep up with it. Not because it's hard to understand but because of the number at the start of every line, therefore this doesn't flow well.... It seems like he is reading off a manuscript with numbers on each line. Really throw me off
who can go or stay when darkness turns me to a vampire!

Is it Cantonese accent? Sounds familiar to me!
has it text? if yes where should I find that
The guy reading this is too slow and boring. Plus he slowly repeats his intro at the start of each chapter. Find another reader.
There are many books that uses the theory this book for to teach another theories.
man is too hard to understand i fear
This book has way more deep and profound uses than to "destroy" as in war. U can defeat rather than destroy thus allowing growth in new terms. This is the art of winning. In my humble opinion anyhow.
War is a construct of the Government to invade another country for profit. The only war fought for the right reason was the Civil War.
War does not determine who's right but determines who's left.
The necessary pragmatism of the strategist. A necessary read for those of a tactical mindset.
War is one of few human constants, be it national or individual
Great
it's amazing how can we relate "the art of war " in nowadays rather be on sports or business or whatever. I really enjoy it, despite the way is written in my opinion is not the best, look more like commandments, anyway i really like it 👌
