by Sun Tzu
First published 2023
General Sun Tzu conquered ancient Chinese states through strategic brilliance that military leaders, business executives, and negotiators still study today. Authors Lawrence Kane and Kris Wilder take the master strategist's Art of War and show readers how to apply its battle-tested methods to contemporary challenges. Starting with the 1910 translation of Sun Tzu's original text, they add modern commentary and historical context to make ancient wisdom practical for today's world. The book demonstrates how Sun Tzu's principles can help entrepreneurs gain competitive advantages, assist negotiators in closing better deals, and guide anyone facing conflict in business or personal situations. Kane brings expertise from strategic sourcing and martial arts training, while Wilder contributes insights from coaching and multiple black belt rankings. Together they translate military tactics into actionable strategies for conquering modern obstacles without traditional warfare.
