Tzu's ideas have been the cornerstone of every great success
story since it was written, around 2500 years ago. It should
be a central part of your library and way of thinking for
business, military, or day-to-day affairs. This interpretation
of The Art of War is written in plain English. It does not
bog down with flowery, philosophical, or tedious writing.
There is no beating around the bush. Strategy is strategy,
and the same principles are used whether you are fighting
for success or for survival. All organizations, whether predator
or prey, function by these same principles no matter their
size. I could have added fifty pages of personal dribble or
opinion, but I chose to leave the text the way I think it
was intended.

I am amazed that the original was written so
long ago. Now maybe it is the fact that this book is written
in plain English, but I felt like I was reading a self help
book written by a modern motivational speaker. I had been
having trouble with a few of my employees and wasn't sure
how to handle it without breaking the team's spirit. I took
the advice from this book and tried a couple of different
suggestions on dealing with staff and within a week the problem
started to disappear. Now it is gone and my team is running
on supercharged focus. I guess it just goes to show that people
don't really change. Today or 2500 years ago the same advice
works. I am very impressed with this book.
