Review:

''The most useful and important book ever written for aspiring leaders.'' --Toronto Sun Times

''The Art of War is undisputedly one of the bestselling leadership books of all time . . . This message of victory without aggression still resonates with how we conduct all aspect of our lives today.'' --Publishers Weekly

''The Art of War . . . has fascinated casual readers as well as business and military leaders with its unusually clear delineation of strategic thinking . . . This work has endured, not simply as a manual for the conduct of warfare but because of the depth of the principles on which it is based and their applicability to everyday life.'' --Library Journal

''As a reflection of the Chinese mind, this little work is as relevant as any Confucian classic.'' --Times (London)

''A brief tract on strategy that has been admired in China for centuries. Some of Mao Tse Tung's most eloquent thoughts are merely rehashes of Sun-tzu and his interpreters.'' --Los Angeles Herald Examiner
