  I ordered this book for a Psychology class I was taking, so it was a required read. I actually ordered is via Amazon for Kindle. It was an easy read, nothing really to complex or difficult to understand. Basis of this book is that it was written in China over two thousand years ago, Sun Tzu's The Art of War provides the first known attempt to formulate a rational basis for the planning and conduct of military operations. His essays contain principles acted upon by such twentieth-century Chinese generals as Mao Zedong. The book is translated by the late Samuel B. Griffith. Samuel Griffith offers an insightful translation of this classic, which makes it even more relevant to the modern world. If you are taking a class and need the book or just want to brush up on your twentieth century military tactics, I suggest this book. I hope this review helps.
