The two political classics in this book are the product of a time of intense turmoil in Chinese history. Dating from the Period of the Warring States (403-221BC), they anticipate Machiavelli's The Prince by nearly 2000 years. The Art of War is the best known of a considerable body of Chinese works on the subject. It analyses the nature of war, and reveals how victory may be ensured. The Book of Lord Shang is a political treatise for the instruction of rulers. These texts are anything but armchair strategy or ivory-tower speculation. They are serious, urgent and practical responses to the desperate situations in which they were written. They have been immensely influential both inside and outside China.

Two classic works of military strategy that shaped the way we think about The Art of War by Sun Tzu and On War by Karl von Clausewitz, together in one volume “Civilization might have been spared much of the damage suffered in the world wars . . . if the influence of Clausewitz’s On War had been blended with and balanced by a knowledge of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War .”—B. H. Liddel HartFor two thousand years, Sun Tzu’s The Art of War has been the indispensable volume of warcraft. Although his work is the first known analysis of war and warfare, Sun Tzu struck upon a thoroughly modern “The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.” Karl von Clausewitz, the canny military theorist who famously declared that war is a continuation of politics by other means, also claims paternity of the notion “total war.” On War is the magnum opus of the era of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars.Now these two great minds come together in a single volume that also features an introduction by esteemed military writer Ralph Peters and the Modern Library War Series introduction by Caleb Carr, New York Times bestselling author of The Alienist . (The cover and text refer to The Art of War as The Art of Warfare, an alternate translation of the title.)

Collected here in this 4-in-1 omnibus are the most important books ever written on the art of 'The Art of War' by Sun Tzu; 'On War' by Carl von Clausewitz; 'The Art of War' by Niccolo Machiavelli, and 'The Art of War' by Baron De Jomini. These four books will give you as complete a view on the art of war as you can attain. Sun Tzu's 'The Art of War' is the most important book ever written about warfare and conflict.

This book explains when and how to go to war, as well as when not to. Learn how to win any conflict whether it be on the battlefield or in the boardroom. Although Carl von Clausewitz participated in many military campaigns, he was primarily a military theorist interested in the examination of war. 'On War' is the West's premier work on the philosophy of war. Other soldiers before him had written treatises on various military subjects, but none undertook a great philosophical examination of war on the scale of Clausewitz's. 'On War' is considered to be the first modern book of military strategy. This is due mainly to Clausewitz's integration of political, social, and economic issues as some of the most important factors in deciding the outcomes of a war. It is one of the most important treatises on strategy ever written, and continues to be required reading at many military academies. Niccolo Machiavelli considered 'The Art of War' to be his greatest achievement. Here you will learn how to recruit, train, motivate, and discipline an army. You will learn the difference between strategy and tactics. Machiavelli does a masterful job of breaking down and analyzing historic battles. This book of military knowledge belongs alongside Sun-Tzu and Clausewitz on every book shelf. Antoine-Henri Jomini was the most celebrated writer on the Napoleonic art of war. Jomini was present at the majority of the most important battles of the Napoleonic Wars. His writing, therefore, is the most authoritative on the subject. In this fully illustrated version of 'The Art of War', he "The art of war, as generally considered, consists of five purely military branches, - Strategy, Grand Tactics, Logistics, Engineering, and Tactics. A sixth and essential branch, hitherto unrecognized, might be termed Diplomacy in its relation to War. Although this branch is more naturally and intimately connected with the profession of a statesman than with that of a soldier, it cannot be denied that, if it be useless to a subordinate general, it is indispensable to every general commanding an army."

The Book Contains The Art Of War or The Articles Of Suntzu and The Sayings Of Wutzu. The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise attributed to Sun Tzu, a high-ranking military general, strategist and tactician.

Военната стратегия на Сун Дзъ е известна и широко разпространена на Запад. Преди две столетия мисионер за първи път я превежда на френски език. Нейните принципи са изучавани и използвани от Наполеон. През последните две хилядолетия тя е най-важният военен трактат в Азия -китайските, японските и корейските военни теоретици и професионални войници я изучават задължително.Концепцията на книгата предизвиква дискусии и страстни философски дебати, като приковава вниманието на много влиятелни личности."Изкуството на войната" е един от най-древните и задълбочени военни трактати на Китай. Книгата се приписва на историческия персонаж Сун У от края на VI в. пр. Хр. Съществува и друга версия, която датира ръкописа в периода на "Борещите се царства", т. е. VІ-ІІІ в. пр. Хр. Трета версия анализира самия текст, съпоставяйки го с по-рано открити източници, които го ситуират някъде във втората половина на V в. пр. Хр.Едва ли някога ще се установи единомислие за действителната дата. Проблем е също и автентичността на текста - т. нар. традиционалисти изключително емоционално защитават тезата за съществуването на Сун Дзъ. Възможно е историческата личност Сун У да е съставил вътъка на книгата. Най-същественото се е предавало от поколение на поколение, в семейството или в училище, а с годините се е променяло и придобивало все по-широко разпространение. Най-ранният текст вероятно е бил "редактиран" от знаменития потомък на Сун Дзъ - Сун Бинем, който също е използвал неговото учение в своите "военни методи". Ясно прозират следите на даоистки концепции и този трактат се дискутира и във философски план.Множество пасажи от "Изкуството на войната" се срещат в други, много по-късни военни трактати. Това навежда на мисълта, че военната стратегия на Сун Дзъ е най-старата и е ценена повече от която п ла било друга.Пренесеният през вековете текст на Сун Дзъ е структуриран в тринайсет глави, всяка от които е посветена на конкретна тема. Много съвременни китайски военни специалисти продължават ла смятат книгата за органически цялостно произведение, изтъкано от вътрешна логика и развитие на единна сюжетна линия. Въпреки това обаче родството между предполагаемо свързаните пасажи е трудно да се установи или изобщо липсва. Читателят може да забележи, че основните концепции са внимателно логически обработени, което потвърждава авторството на един човек или че текстът е подложен на единна обработка.Подобни военни трактати са намерени погребани в могила на ханската династия Лин. Те включват вариант на "Изкуството на войната". В находката традиционният текст е изменян минимално и само когато промяната изяснява части, неразбираеми преди.Във времето, когато е бил създаден трактатът, военните действия вече са се превърнали в действителна заплаха за съществуването на всички държави. Сун Дзъ разбира, че към военна мобилизация и към привеждане на армията в действие трябва да се прибягва с голяма сериозност. Цялостният му подход за воденето на война е дълбоко аналитичен, изисква щателна подготовка и необходимостта да се формулира обща стратегия преди началото на кампанията.

From the 11th-Century AD onwards, these texts became required reading for Chinese military officers.

Bookshub. co.inThe Art of The Art of War' is an ancient Chinese military treatise written by Sun Tzu, a high-ranking military general, strategist and tactician. The text is composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare. It is commonly known to be the definitive work on military strategy and tactics of its time. It has been the most famous and influential of China's Seven Military Classics, and for the last two thousand years it remained the most important military treatise in Asia, where even the common people knew it by name.Sun Tzu believed war to be an essential wrongdoing that must be got rid of whenever it can be. The war should be fought fleetingly to reduce economic decline. Sun Tzu harped on the significance of placement in military tactics. The planning to position an army must be dependent on the stipulations in the physical surroundings and the subjective thoughts of various militants in those conditions. He believed that strategy cannot be considered as planning with respect to glancing through a previously decided list. It is better represented by the fact that it needs speedy and suitable reactions to altering situations. Planning gives results in restrained surroundings. But in case of an altering environment, similar plans come in each other's ways and give rise to undesired outcomes. It has had an influence on Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy and beyond.The Book of Five Along with Sun Tzu's the art of War, the book of five rings is considered to be one of the most insightful texts on the subtle arts of confrontation and victory to emerge from Asia. It analyses the process of struggle and mastery over conflict that underlies every level of human interaction. For Musashi, the way of the martial arts was a mastery of the mind rather than simply technical prowess-and it is this path to mastery that is the core teaching in the book of five rings. This brilliant manifesto is written not only for martial artists but for anyone who wants to apply the timeless principles of this text to their life.

L’arte della guerra, ispirato agli insegnamenti di Sun Tzu, fu probabilmente scritto nel IV secolo a.C. ed è pertanto considerato il più antico manuale bellico. È ispirato a un unico chiarissimo principio: il modo migliore per essere certi di vincere una guerra è assicurarsi la vittoria ancora prima di cominciare a combattere. Ciò significa studiare l’avversario, i suoi punti di forza e di debolezza; conoscere alla perfezione il terreno di battaglia, ma anche i propri limiti; giocare di sorpresa, con manovre e scelte tattiche inaspettate; e soprattutto contare sulla massima velocità nelle informazioni (che saranno carpite al nemico da un nutrito esercito di spie) e nell’organizzazione delle contromosse. Tutto ciò farà sì che ogni azione abbia la massima efficacia possibile ed eviti inutili stragi. L’arte della guerra è diventato oggi un libro di culto anche per migliaia di manager e dirigenti aziendali.

...Сунь-цзы жил почти за пятьсот лет до нашей эры. Его трактат о военном искусстве долгое время не был известен в Европе. Его не читали ни Ганнибал, ни Цезарь, ни Наполеон, ни Суворов. Но тот, кто знает историю их войн и сражений, прочтя сочинение Сунь-цзы, увидит, что основные принципы искусства управлять войсками, завоевывать соседей, убивать и грабить не менялись на протяжении тысячелетий. Менялось и совершенствовалось только оружие, с помощью которого все это делают люди…

The Art of War, The Prince, and The Book of Five Rings are three historical pieces that deal with strategy.The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise, and each chapter within the treatise is devoted to a distinct aspect of warfare and how that applies to military strategy and tactics. The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has had a profound influence on East Asian and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy, and beyond.Machiavelli composed The Prince as a practical guide for ruling an empire. Within his treatise, Machiavelli aims to provide strategies on how to govern a nation, conquest of new territories, and dealing with integration of the peoples of new territories. Machiavelli also lays out his strategy for defense, military, and the qualities a prince should have to govern properly.The Book of Five Rings is a Japanese text that has been regarded as a treatise on the strategy for winning. The five chapters, "rings", refer to the idea that there are different elements of battle, just as there are different physical elements in life. The Book of Five Rings was known as the holy grail for samurai; it lays out strategy on how to defeat an enemy by using tactics such as throwing them off guard and creating confusion, among other techniques.
