THE ART OF WAR - SUN TSU KARTONIERT (TB)

A stunning Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition of the world's most famous military treatise  by the
award-winning translator of the Tao Te Ching and the I Ching For more than two thousand years 
Sun-tzu's The Art of War has provided leaders with essential advice on battlefield tactics and
management strategies. An elemental part of Chinese culture  it has also become a touchstone
for the Western struggle for survival and success  whether in battle  in business  or in
relationships. Now  in this crisp  accessible translation  eminent scholar John Minford brings
this seminal work to life for today's readers. Capturing the literary quality of the work 
Minford presents the core text in two formats: first  the unadorned ancient words of wisdom
ascribed to Sun-tzu  then  the same text with extensive running commentary from the canon of
traditional Chinese commentators. A lively  learned introduction and other valuable apparatus
round out this authoritative volume. For more than seventy years  Penguin has been the leading
publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1 800 titles 
Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across
genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by
introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors  as well as
up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
