Sunzi Speaks

Description

*The Art of War* is a seminal work on military strategy that is today as important and influencial among politicians and business executives as it is among military leaders. Written over twenty-five hundered years ago by a mysterious Chinese warrior-philosopher, the book has become one of the most revered handbooks for success of all times. 'Feign weakness to create over-confidence in the enemy,' Sunzi cautions. 'When attacking nearby, make it appear that you are attacking a distant point. When attacking a distant point, make it clear that you are attacking nearby.' These words of wisdom and psychological insight ring as true today as they did centuries ago -- and can easily be applied to situations far removed from the battlefield. In *Sunzi Speaks*, the great warrior's wisdom is retold through the enchanting and entertaining cartoon illustrations of Tsai Chih Chung. As with Tsai's previous books, the original Chinese notes are contained in the margins of each page as a decorative device -- and as an aid to potential scholars and Chinese-speaking readers. Tsai Chih Chung brings the essence of this classic Chinese text vividly and enduringly to life. — From the back of the book
