Trade Review
“There is no doubt that J. H. Huang’s new translation of Sun Tzu will be valuable to anyone who is a student of The Art of War. It will be used by scholars for years to come.” — General Norman Schwarzkopf “The Linyi verion of Sun-tzu provides a fresh new interpretation of Sun-tzu’s classic works. As the oldest version yet discovered, it lays strong claim to the closet adherence of Sun-tzu’s true intent. . . . This edition presents Huang’s open and accessible text to a new generation.” — Lt. General David W. Barno “May be the greatest book on war ever written. . . . Time-tested poetry for the strategic mind.” — Fortune on The Art of War “The Art of War, written 2,400 years ago, retains its relevance as a treatise on winning. . . . Its lessons in combat tactics and troop management have made The Art of War a standard text in business school classes.” — Los Angeles Times “The most succinct strategy document ever written.” — Lee Atwater on The Art of War
