The Art of War

The Art of War, by the Chinese general and philosopher Sun Tzu, is one of the most influential books of military strategy ever written. This hardcover edition is packaged distinctively with a beautifully designed jacket by noted illustrator Malika Favre.

More than 2,000 years old, this classic of Chinese philosophy lays out a systematic, rational approach to tactics and strategy that leaders worldwide have applied not only to the military, but also to business, law, martial arts, and sports. This edition uses Lionel Giles’s classic translation. Giles’s extensive annotations and commentary on Sun Tzu’s aphorisms and proverbs are also included.
