Publisher's Synopsis
The art of war has had an extraordinary influence on the history of warfare. The principles Sun Tzu expounded in the 6th century B.C. were most brilliantly utilised by Asian war leaders like Mao Tse Tung, Giap and Yamamoto. First translated two hundred years ago, the book has been credited with influencing Napolean, the German general Staff and even the planning for Desert Storm. Many German companies make this book essential reading for their key executives. Corporates, too, today are turning for inspiration to this classic to survive competition and succeed in their fields.
