An immortal book that has existed for more than two thousand years. The first treatise in human history dedicated to war and military art. The name of the author — the greatest military leader and military theorist of Ancient China, Sun Tzu, 6th-5th centuries BC — is forever etched in world history. "The Art of War" is the ability to correctly assess and utilize circumstances and available resources. It is the art of understanding and managing. The path of self-knowledge and confrontation. Legendary military leaders, politicians, and entrepreneurs from various countries and eras have achieved their crushing victories thanks to the recommendations drawn from this book. The philosophy of Sun Tzu is still applied by heads of state and top managers of major world corporations, helping them defeat competitors, achieve beneficial cooperation, and improve management methods. Familiarity with these principles allows one to acquire the wisdom of ages and win any war. The edition includes a classic translation and comments by the outstanding Soviet orientalist Academician N. I. Konrad.
