Art of War Sun Tzu

Post by stealththief » Wed Jul 01, 2009 10:47 pm

I'm reading this right now and it's not bad at all. The ideas can be applied to NO (or anything ever remotely martial). It's interesting, but also practical. I recommend you guys check it out if you're big planners, tacticians or strategist. Overall worth the read even with NO aside. Real easy to find for free or in paper.

I've read Thomas Cleary's translation which has his introduction and comments from historical Chinese figures on the Art of War. It is is very useful for general conflict.

I have a copy on my hard drive but have never got round to reading it, I will eventually.

Finished reading it, twice. Very well written, the principles can be applied to many many things.
We are all books containing thousands of pages and within each lies an irreparable truth.
What is locked, can be opened. What is hidden, can be found. What is yours... can be mine.
