Synopsis
The aphorisms that make up the philosophy of war and strategy by Sun Tzu have, several centuries later, become a must-read for young professionals in business. Though the text can be applied to the ruthless world of commerce, this translation by Thomas Cleary contextualizes the teachings in the Taoist tradition, enabling the work to transcend the simple co-opting of the philosophy for business strategies. By clarifying the philosophical origins, Cleary makes the text applicable not only to winning a literal war but also to almost any conflict-resolution situation, as well as to achieving goals in life. Though the text deals with many pragmatic issues in war, ranging in topics from "Strategic Assessments, "Armed Struggle," and "The Use of Spies," much of the text is rooted in the idea that the greatest victory is won without having to do battle. At times, the material approaches these subjects in very practical terms, but the underlying message is that of surpassing unnecessary physical and emotional strain with deep understanding of the given situation. Because of the simplicity of the original text, there is much room for interpretation. The translation utilizes commentary from 11 ancient scholars elaborating on each aphorism with a more complete interpretation.

    Written about 2500 yrs. ago, this book is still referenced for it's strategic approach on war and applications in the business world. I have referenced it to understand the tactics of some of my most powerful clients in my profession. It has helped me understand and craft my business affairs to engage in a more strategic approach. I highly recommend this book as well as The 48 Laws of Power - it will definitely help you in your business endeavors.---------A.S.E.,LLC

    I had to read twice to help absorb the information completely. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about a strategic approach in both life and career. Too bad it was a mini-book.......I would have preferred a normal sized hardcover.
