Sun Tzu - Huang, J. H. : Sun Tzu: The Art of War. The New Translation.
- description
- additional information
"Sun-Tzu" is a landmark translation of the Chinese classic that is without a doubt one of the most important books of all time. Popularly known as "The Art of War, Sun-Tzu" is one of the leading books on strategic thinking ever written. While other books on strategy, wisdom, and philosophy come and go, both leaders and gentle contemplators alike have embraced the writings of Sun-tzu. "Sun-Tzu" is not simply another of many translations already available, but an entirely new text, based on manuscripts recently discovered in Linyi, China, that predates all previous texts by as much as one thousand years. In translating the text, researcher and interpreter J. H. Huang traced the roots of the language to before 221 B.C. to get to the original intent; Besides offering a wonderfully clear translation, Huang adds an introduction to the history behind "Sun-Tzu" and his own comments on the meaning of the text. In addition, "Sun-Tzu" includes six appendices, five of which were uncovered at Linyi and are not found in other editions.The writings of Sun-tzu have stood the test of time, and J. H. Huang's "Sun-Tzu" is the edition for the next millennium and beyond
