About this audiobook

The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise attributed to Sun Tzu, a high-ranking military general, strategist and tactician. The text is composed of 13 chapters, each devoted to one aspect of warfare. It is commonly considered to be the definitive work on military strategy and tactics of its time. It has been the most famous and influential of China's Seven Military Classics, and "for the last two thousand years it remained the most important military treatise in Asia, where even the common people knew it by name." It has had an influence on Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy and beyond.

I have the physical book on my shelf. But, buying the audiobook is generally better. This book is a real standout for those who enjoy reading about history or warfare. The Art of War takes you on a journey into the lives of military generals that lived many centuries ago. Tzu entices the reader with a multitude of tactics, risks and requirements for war and provides the reader with a greater insight on the struggle many conquerors faced. He doesn’t withhold any secrets making this book feel more organic and flow much more easily. Without the proper knowledge on war, small rulers could easily be conquered while large kingdoms could easily crumble. Tzu further grounds the book into the past by his use of diction. The jargon and sentence structures gives insight into how writers and philosophers communicated their knowledge in the past. All in all, this historic book is a must read for anyone who enjoys learning about historical warfare. Its unique presentation of information provides a new and refreshing flavor on a non-fiction text. Its knowledge encapsulates the history and depth of war while its presentation provides a fun way of learning it. The greatest charm of this book is that it is not restricted only to the battle field.
