1 out of 5 stars You can get the contents for FREE on the web DON'T BUY   May 17, 2009
K. Seifert (New York)
Just google "the art of war" and you get the full text of the translation by Giles - it's in public domain.


4 out of 5 stars A Classic   April 8, 2009
Dave Vantreese (KY USA)
This book is a classic! I bought and read this book out of curiosity. It seems to me some of our recent contemporary U.S. "commanders" should have read this book before starting the Iraq war and taken its advise. This book is filled with strategy regarding conflict. Some of the content is obviously way outdated.


3 out of 5 stars One of the best books on Strategy   April 3, 2009
Mark Deo (Torrance, CA)
It's a classic that you can read in under an hour. One of the best books I have read. Simple, basic, and a great strategy foundation. I refer to it all the time. Great book from a historical standpoint, but certainly is a great asset in business.


1 out of 5 stars Published Before Ready   March 11, 2009

This book unfortunately seems to have been published before it was ready, as other reviewers also note.

The elementary error on the Table of Contents page (with Chapter IX [9] appearing between Chapter IV [4] and Chapter V [5]) suggests no professional proofreader or editor involved. The other spelling, grammatical, and content errors that appear in the text suggest that the material is a largely unchanged Project Gutenberg text file: http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/132

All in all, the publisher should really release a second edition that fixes the myriad easy to find errors. Particularly since this book is obviously selling well and the publisher ought therefore have the funds with which to do so.

In the meantime, a comparable edition at the same price (but properly proofread and corrected) is the Pax Librorum edition: The Art of War which is fully downloadable/previewable via a PDF eBook at the publisher's website. Or just about any other one from more well-known and established publishers.
