Product Description

The Art of War, the world's oldest treatise on warfare, has been studied by leaders for centuries.

Dated to about fifth century BCE, The Art of War is considered the oldest treatise on war in the world. Attributed to Sun Tzu of the Zhou dynasty, the book is composed of thirteen chapters, each addressing a particular aspect of warfare, such as planning offenses, military combat, and the employment of spies. Influential in Eastern civilization for millennia and in Western culture since its first translation in the eighteenth century, the teachings of this book have been applied to scenarios as varied as office politics, the Vietnam War, and American football. Featuring gilded edges and a heat-burnished cover, this edition of The Art of War is a stylish addition to your bookshelf.
