Art of War a Collection of 101 Questions and Answers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798519397025)

There is no doubt that the ideas of Sun Tzu in the Art of War are completely valid for today's conflict. We see but do not recognise them being used all around us every day.
When Sun Tzu inked a collection of military maxims to strips of bamboo, to aid junior officers, he unwittingly wrote the earliest known self-help book.
Christopher Bullock, British dramatist, wrote in his play, The Cobbler of Preston in 1716, "'Tis impossible to be sure of anything but Death and Taxes". He was wrong, there is a third, conflict. We all suffer daily from conflict, both personal and professional. Therefore, the truth is that we all become strategists when dealing with conflict. It is not a matter of if but how skillful each becomes. The skill levels may vary but we all use strategies and tactics. It is unavoidable.
Conflict is conflict, regardless of size, location, weapons or those involved. Wars are simply examples of conflict on a grand scale says Carl von Clausewitz. The constants that apply to war are the very same that apply to personal conflict. Once this is understood and accepted, then the Art of War is there to become one of the best mentors ever, alive or dead. For over 2,500 years, great commanders, strategists, and leaders, held the Art of War as the supreme thesis on conflict. From warriors to politicians, business owners, doctors: anyone who desired to be better.
His maxims are adaptable to our daily efforts to succeed, to win, to achieve all the goals we set for ourselves, both personal and professional. Every successful person you know, have heard about, or see in the news, they all conform to and confirm the wisdom of Sun Tzu.
This is the secret to using the Art of War, combining the maxims for more detailed advice from the ancient sage. There is no magic, a single quote will not solve your problem or conflict. However, using multiple maxims combined, your successes will increase. This is the adaption of Sun Tzu's idea of combined energy. He applied it to men, we apply it to maxims. As your successes increase, so should your understanding and then you will enjoy improved success. All these successes will improve your life and lifestyle significantly. Isn't this what you want?
The carefully selected 101 questions reveal how to read, understand, and apply the maxims, the short paragraphs. This is the book I needed when I first read the book so long ago. Even if you have read the Art of War for some time, there is value for you.
The maxims are presented not in military thinking but in civilian terms, so we can squeeze out every benefit and, every minute advantage. The greatest challenge is this very transition from military to civilian, the greatest stumbling block.
