Critics Review
“Besides being a guide to strategies and tactics for governing a nation and engaging in military conflict, The Art of War can be looked at as a manual for conquering perhaps one’s greatest enemy: the self. This very clear and direct translation makes this ancient wisdom easily accessible to modern minds.”
—Michael Imperioli, The Sopranos and White Lotus
“The Art of War soon could join Machiavelli’s The Prince as required reading in the executive suite.”
—USA Today
“Absorb this book, and you can throw out all those contemporary books about management leadership.”
—Newsweek
“The most useful and important book ever written for aspiring leaders.”
—Toronto Sun Times
Thomas Cleary
The warrior-philosopher and master strategist Sun Tzu, about whom little is known, compiled The Art of War more than two thousand years ago. Legend has it that he was known for the brilliant campaigns he led around the time of Confucius. His work was memorized and passed down orally, before eventually being copied onto bamboo strips and passed around.
