Publisher’s Summary
“To win without fighting is best,” Sun Tzu said. For the Chinese philosopher/general war was coeval with life. Tzu viewed the world as a network of combat zones where the stakes are high and struggle is the primary mode of being, where no one is to be trusted, and survival depends on nothing less than unconditional victory. Actors Ron Silver and B.D. Wong narrate this 2,500-year-old work of wisdom that continues to guide and inspire people of all cultures, teaching the principles of strategy required in everything from sports to business to affairs of the heart. Augmented by commentaries and anecdotes, this audio edition maintains the spare, near-poetic tone of the original.

I am totally against fighting and war. My philosophy is the best offense is a good defense and the best defense is not to offend. It is hard not to offend anybody when a person gets angry at what he sees going wrong in the world. I like to practice the art of fighting without fighting. If an enemy kills me he is not really my enemy but my liberator and by my death has liberated me from all suffering, all worldly possessions, has given me complete enlightenment, and made me an enlightened being. If one has this philosophy one does not fear death. I think a lot of the stories in this book would make good Kung fu movies.

The textbook is very useful even in todays modern warfare, though not all are applicable, considering the context, it remains a state of the art guide in the battle field for military intelligence.
