"The Art of War is a Chinese military treatise written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it has long been praised as the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time. The Art of War is one of the oldest and most famous studies of strategy and has had a huge influence on both military planning and beyond. The Art of War has also been applied, with much success, to business and managerial strategies." (summary from Wikipedia) (1 hr 12 min)

I feel old


(5 stars)

I should have known that this book is not for everyone, there are some war strategies being told that maybe old be still useful, the point is that why a casual folk should know making fire in enemy territory. anyway it was a relief to finally listen and know about this book.

I need to read

(5 stars)

It's been years since the last time I read books for fun and thought that listening to audio books might be a good way to get back on it. I've heard about this book a few times before but haven't read it myself. This is a great book about strategizing war. I think it can also be applied for personal growth as it corresponds with tactics in facing challenges in life and even tips on how to be a good leader.

Hoosh
