Sun Tzu on the Art of War: The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise that is said to be the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time. Its broad and profound contents, deep thoughts, and precise logic present the essence of Chinese military theory. The author is Wu’s general Sun Wu who is born in Le An in Qi in the Spring and Autumn period of ancient China. It is an important legacy of the Chinese military strategists. People keep doing researches on it in some 2500 years. Emperor Li Shimin says ‘every military work is influenced by The Art of War’. Military strategies and tactics are planning, not tricks.
