Sun Tzuās ancient book of strategy and psychology has as much to tell us today as when it was first written 2,500 years ago. In a world forever at odds, his rules for anticipating the motivations and strategies of our competitors never cease to inspire leaders of all kinds.
Michael Nylan, in her provocative introduction, sees new and unexpected lessons to be learned from The Art of Warāin business ventures, relationships, games of skill, academic careers, and medical practices. Strategy, like conflict, is woven into societyās very roots.
Nylanās crisp translation āoffers a masterly new evaluation of this classic work, which balances the overtly military content with a profound and thought-provoking analysisā (Olivia Milburn). Readers newly engaging with ancient Chinese culture will be inspired by Nylanās authoritative voice. Informed by years of scholarly study, Nylan is uniquely placed to introduce readers to Sun Tzuās classic work through her detailed annotations on culture and the intricacies of translating ancient Chinese into modern English. She proves that Sun Tzu is more relevant than ever, helping us navigate the conflicts we know and those we have yet to endure.
