Sun Tzu was a Chinese general, military strategist, writer, and philosopher. He is accredited with The Art of War. While there is disagreement over when Sun Tsu lived and the authorship of this work, there is no doubt over the influence this work has had in the culture of war. Many leaders, including Mao, were strongly influenced and used the teachings to great effect. The Art of War has become popular in recent times because of its philosophy of Daoism, which promotes passivism.
Book Review:For more than 2,000 years the Art of War has been inspiring leaders on essential tactics for battle. This book has more connotations for today's readers than one might imagine.
