Synopsis "The art of War: Bilingual Chinese and English Text"

Sun Tzu's The Art of War is still one of the world's most influential treatises on strategic thought. Applicable everywhere from the boardroom to the bedroom, from the playing field to the battlefield, its wisdom has never been more highly regarded. Now available in its complete form, including the Chinese characters and English text, this essential examination of the art of decisive military strategy features extensive commentary and an insightful historical introduction written by Lionel Giles, its original translator. This unique edition provides a clear English translation as well as Chinese names given in modern Hanyu Pinyin, the standard romanization system. This new edition includes an all-new introduction by scholar of ancient Chinese literature, John Minford, which places Sun Tzu into perspective for modern readers--so they may fully understand his advice and apply it in their daily lives. Sun Tzu's The Art of War arms you with the knowledge that allows all who study this book to gain victory over those who remain ignorant of its sage advice.

View Author's Page
Sun Tzu (in simplified Chinese: 孙子, in traditional Chinese: 孫子, in pinyin: Sūnzǐ) was a general, military strategist, and philosopher from ancient China. The name by which we know him is actually an honorary title meaning "Master Sun". His birth name was Sun Wu and outside his family, he was known by his courtesy name Changqing.

Traditionally, he is considered the author of The Art of War, an influential treatise on military strategy. Sun Tzu has had a significant impact on Chinese and Asian history and culture, both for writing The Art of War and for being a legendary historical figure.
