Amazing playbook for leadership in any form..replace manager, teacher, coach, mentor to replace general. I've been a fan of all things Romance of the Three Kingdoms for years, and came across this as an ancillary to Sun Tzu's Art of War. Zhuge Liang's Mastering the Art of War fills in many of the blanks for understanding the statesman-general in Chinese history.
In any form of leadership, the manager, coach, teacher, mentor has a much more rich role than simply planning a battle, strategic mark

Although this is a short book, and likely a very obscure one, this book is a worthwhile gem for those who are students of the lasting influence of Chinese military strategy and its larger implications [1]. The translator and editor of this book assumes that the reader is familiar with both the Art of War and the I Ching, as well as having some passing familiarity with the larger scope of Chinese history between the Spring and Autumn and T’ang periods. Needless to say, not many readers will be fa..more

This book is a collection of translations of two old Chinese texts on the art of war - one by Zhuge Liang, and one by Liu Ji.
These old Chinese texts on strategy can be hard to grok, because they are so succinct. I've always found this to be the case with Sun Tzu's Art of War. You can read it quickly, because it really is rather short. Each brief little chapter provides a small gem of strategic wisdom that, in a modern Western text, would be elaborated on for a few pages. But here, we only get a

Recommends it for: Anyone Who Has An Interest In Dealing With Conflict

The Art Of War Sun Tzu

Shelves: education, corporate-culture, cultural, strategic-methods, war, military, conflict-resolutions
Mastering the Art of War is a must read especially if you are interested in better understanding the various aspects of dealing with opposition either mentally or physically. Each strategy is broken up into bite side nuggets such as: Strategic Assessments, Doing Battle, Planning a Siege and Adaptations to help you to see the value of war. Additionally, hearing from the Masters and leaders on how they see each section is valuable.
I find that these strategies are ideal in negotiation, conflict re

An unnecessary extension of the Sun Tzu classic, but it wasn't the worst read.

I had studied military history and played wargames (real deal, war college style) for a couple of decades before reading Sun Tzu. So for me a lot of the text came across as all too obvious common sense. But this text provides insights beyond physical tactics and historical interest and has earned its durable international reputation: Sun Tzu wrote about battlefield strategy, but also about campaign strategy, the economics of warfare, and the motives and morale of both soldiers and the politicians whose directives initiate war.
This particular translation includes useful commentary referencing a variety of ancient commentaries, and draws comparison to more recent (i.e. U.S. Civil War) referents. Anyone who wants to understand both literal warfare and 'moral equivalents to war' would be well served to study this text and dwell in particular on whatever parts seem counter-intuitive or nonsensical: That's where a given reader will find challenges and rewards.
As a lifelong pacifist, I make it my business to study war with grim determination. The time to lay down that sword and shield and 'study war no more' is when we arrive 'down by the riverside.' Getting there requires the most complete understanding possible - and an educated appreciation of the fundamental distinction between force and violence.
Five star rating because the scale does not go any higher.
