Historians refer to the period from 770 BC to 476 BC in Chinese history as the Spring and Autumn Period. This period was one of drastic social and economic changes, complex political rivalry, frequent military struggles, and brilliant academic and cultural advancement. This was also the interim of Chinese civilisation between its ancient and medieval periods.
Sun Wu, later honoured as "The Great Military Sage" and titled Sunzi, was born during this period of upheavals and dramatic changes. Rising to the occasion, he devoted himself to fight in the raging battles - fierce struggles in arms and in blood, pitting his wisdom and military might against his enemy's. Combining the insights he gathered from the battlefield with brilliant strategies, Sun Wu produced the enduring classic The Art of War, which would greatly influence the world.
The Art of War, a military classic, covers widely the subject of strategising. Containing extensive knowledge, dealt with in great depth, it is a crystallisation of human wisdom, and has the potential to change the direction the world is heading. Today, we have witnessed how the application of strategising principles has expanded beyond the battlefield into everyday life, revolutionising what most have taken for granted in the quest for survival. Its influence is felt not only in state administration, but also in business management, public relations and diplomacy, and even sports. Thus we can see how flexibly Sun Wu's strategising principles can be applied, making it a resource for anyone desiring to meet any challenge.
Contents: Initial Assessments, Waging War, Attack by Stratagem, Disposition of Military Forces, Use of the Military Momentum, Weaknesses and Strengths, Manoeuvring, Nine Variations of Tactics, On the March, The Terrian, Nine Types of Strategic Ground, Attack with Fire, Use of Spies
