“ . . . presents a fresh, distinctive and original rendition of the much-parsed classic . . . the text is presented in a form that is clear and readily understood and at the same time inexhaustibly rich in meaning.” ― New Statesman 
"Michael Nylan’s translation is marvelous. The pithiness of certain parts of the text, its aphoristic quality, presents an exceptionally difficult challenge. Because Nylan has a deep understanding of the social and cultural milieu that produced Sun Tzu’s treatise, she has created an English-language version that is accessible while retaining the literary beauty of the original. Her introduction and supporting materials are very helpful to the reader, and I would expect that this version will become the standard one in the field.” ― Dennis Washburn, Dartmouth College and translator of The Tale of Genji 
“Michael Nylan’s masterful translation of The Art of War brings historical depth to our understanding of the classic and also illuminates its broad significance for our world today.” ― Wai-yee Li, Harvard University

How does an ancient text apply to modern progressive campaigns?A Progressive Art of War applies a modern understanding of politics and social movements to Sun Tzu’s ancient Art of War, revealing an understanding of strategy relevant to progressive movement leaders today.Substitute the word “politics” for “war.” We fight over words and ideas seeking to shape public perception. In democracies, we wage campaigns to move voters and government officials to act. A Progressive Art of War speaks to issues such as solidarity, tactics, resources, strategy and risk. Its insights on conflict apply to elections and advocacy campaigns happening everyday.This is not scholarly discussion of Sun Tzu, nor a rendering of The Art of War into a how-to manual. It is a sharing of how his work frames the reader’s understanding of campaigns. A Progressive Art of War connects modern political and social activism to the ancient text, showing its application to today’s political battlefield and exploring challenges campaigns face from an enduring perspective.

Sun Tzu was a famous Chinese general whose mastery of strategy was so exceptional that he reportedly transformed 180 courtesans into skilled soldiers in a single training session.

In 510 BC, Master Tzu recorded his winning strategies in Art of War, the earliest surviving and most revered tome of its kind.With methods so powerful they can conquer an adversary's spirit, you can use Master Tzu's strategies to overcome any challenge, from warfare to self-defense to business negotiations. This book starts with the classic 1910 translation of Art of War, adds modern and historical insight, and demonstrates how to put the master's timeless wisdom to use in your everyday life.

Kane, Lawrence

Por mas de dos siglos, El arte de la guerra ha sido la guía mas completa de estrategia militar. Un clásico de la literatura china, se ha convertido en lectura esencial para quienes buscan el éxito, tanto en la vida personal como en los negocios. "Uno de los rasgos más interesantes del texto de Sun Tzu es que no pareciera que fue compuesto como un libro de contenido estrictamente castrense. Claramente el autor tenía una intención más amplia que la simple exposición de una serie de técnicas limitadas a las operaciones militares. Se trata de una obra colmada de temas filosóficos que obligan al lector a examinar su ser, su relación con otros y la naturaleza de las circunstancias, para así obtener un objetivo deseado. De manera tal que El arte de la guerra se presta para ser interpretado y aplicado a toda aquella situación que involucre la necesidad de resolver conflictos de una manera eficiente y expedita. Entre esas circunstancias también se encuentran, naturalmente, nuestros propios conflictos internos, en los cuales tratamos de vencer nuestros defectos o debilidades, por lo que el enemigo del cual Sun Tzu escribe se puede expresar de muchas formas a lo largo de nuestras vidas. En otras palabras, El arte de la guerra parece contener y develar las doctrinas esenciales para alcanzar el éxito de muchas maneras y en muchos contextos."&nbsp; De la introducción de Alejandro Bárcenas ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Sun Tzu's Art of War is the most famous, and the most thought-provoking, work of strategy ever written. The profound insights of this book have endured for over two thousand years, and they continue to reward careful study. The Military Methods of Sun Pin, Sun Tzu's great-grandson, is a brilliant elaboration on his ancestor's work,&nbsp;which has been lost for nearly two millennia. Presented here are the greatest of the ancient Chinese classics of strategic thought: The Complete Art of War. The Sun family writings on strategy represent a unique contribution to our understanding of human affairs. By unveiling the complex, often unexpected, interrelationships of armies locked in battle, their wisdom reveals the enduring principles of success in the struggle of life itself. With a unique index to the essential principles of strategy, and Sawyer's thoughtful chapter-by-chapter commentaries, The Complete Art of War is designed to guide the reader to new insights into the nature of human conflict and a greater understanding of every field of human activity, from playing the game of politics to building a successful marriage, from closing a deal to managing a large organization, and even from making war to making peace.
