Riassunto

This collection includes seven of the most famous military texts of ancient China. Highlighted by Sun Tzu's the Art of War, this new translation brings to light several texts that display an understanding of strategy and warfare that still has relevance millennia after their original publication. Each of these texts presents a uniquely eastern understanding of warfare that emphasises speed and stealth over brute strength. From the 11th-century AD onwards, these texts became required reading for Chinese military officers.
