This book was originally intended to be a set of principals designed to maximize the chances for military victory and national survival and minimize the chances of military defeat and human loss. With this view firmly in mind; Sawyer provides the most detailed introduction and commentary yet offered to the Art of War; its author and his age. Features an extensive overview of the history of Chinese Warfare and military thought; including references to the six less well known classics of Chinese military strategy; as well as battle diagrams to help readers visualize the historic military encounters discussed in the book.
