The Art of War

Author(s): Sun Tzu

Critical Thinking

Preserved in China for more than 2000 years before it was brought to the West by the French, this book is widely regarded as the oldest military treatise in the world. Rumored to have been used by Napoleon in his campaigns to conquer Europe, it today retains much of its original merit. American officers read it closely during World War II. The Japanese army studied the work for decades, and many twentieth-century Chinese officers are said to have known the book by heart. More recently, it has also been viewed as a valuable guide to competing successfully in business.
