Sun Tzu's The Art of War, The New Translation

A landmark translation of the Chinese classic that is without a doubt one of the most important books of all time. Popularly known as the Art of War. Sun Tzu is one of the leading books on strategic thinking ever written. While other books on strategy, wisdom, and philosophy come and go, both leaders and gentle contemplators alike have embraced the writings of Sun-tzu. Sun Tzu is not simply another of many translations already available, bu an entirely new text, based on manuscript recently discovered in Linyi, China, that predates all previous texts by as much as one thousand years. In translating the text, a wonderfully clear translation, Huang adds an introduction to the history behind Sun Tzu and his own comments on the meaning of the text. In addition, Sun Tzu includes six appendices, five of which were uncovered at Linyi and are not found in other editions. Softcover.
