The definitive translation of Sun-tzu's timeless classic on military strategy has profoundly influenced the history of warfare. The principles outlined by Sun-tzu have been effectively employed by renowned Asian military leaders such as Mao Tse-tung and Yamamoto. First translated two centuries ago by a French missionary, this work has shaped the strategies of historical figures like Napoleon and the German General Staff, and it even informed planning for Desert Storm. In Japan, it is required reading for key executives, and Western businesspeople increasingly turn to it for insights on succeeding in competitive environments. Unlike many existing editions, often based on flawed translations, this version utilizes the best classical Chinese manuscripts, including the ancient "tomb text" discovered in Linyi, China. Ralph Sawyer, a distinguished scholar of ancient Chinese warfare and a successful businessman, contextualizes this classic work, detailing the historical backdrop of Sun-tzu's era and notable battles that may have influenced him. While acknowledging the philosophical depth of the text, this edition emphasizes its practical origins, offering an accurate and accessible translation for contemporary readers.
