Throughout these Thirteen Chapters, he gives the general valuable advice on how to lead his army, use the terrain and anticipate the movements of his opponent. *You will also discover : that the key word of Sun Tzu's doctrine is deception or the art of deceiving the adversary in order to better annihilate him; that for Sun Tzu, war is too destructive to be entrusted to just anyone; that if the sovereign guides the country towards confrontation, it is up to the general and to him alone to lead his troops. *Sun Tzu wrote only one work of strategy, and yet it remains a reference studied in many military schools throughout the world. The advice given by this war expert is the antithesis of certain strategies implemented by European nations, for example, during the First World War. The Art of War advocates deception, avoidance of confrontation and cunning, advice followed by the fighters of the Vietminh and Viet Cong and which gave Western armies a hard time! *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!
