Official synopsis Publisher
The timeless wisdom of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War is as effective in the modern boardroom as it was on the ancient battlefield, providing simple strategies for success and victory. Now this dual-language edition offers even greater insight by allowing you to directly compare the Chinese characters of Sun Tzu with the highly respected English translation of Lionel Giles. If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare. Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting. Book jacket.
