The Art of War (Deluxe Hardbound Edition) (Fingerprint! Classics)

This beautifully presented book looks fantastic in my collection and really stands out in my opinion. If you're expecting a book filled with fierce battles between war generals change your expectations. If you are however looking for a book that will teach you how to win wars/battles and maybe even conquer your to-do list, you're in luck! And Sun Tzu does this masterfully so in a clear, concise manner without compromising on the depth of the teachings in this book. I think this is a must read at least once, and if you do I'm certain you'll revisit this book and subconsciously implement what it teaches you into your life. 10/10

I read this book when i was younger after my football coach telling me to take a look and loved it. My son has just turned 18 so i got him a copy as i think it will help him in the way it helped me. (One can hope) This is made well, looks lovely and is easy enough to read.

Quick delivery. A very enjoyable book. Thank you.

Good book, My first step on the road to world domination.

A truly stylish presentation of an interesting philosophy that can be related to every day modern life!

Gorgeus edition of this timeless classic!

Maybe I’m dumb. Thought this was the full book. Obviously not. Just a book of quotes and phrases.

I brought this for my 2 year old cousin and they love it! They have never had a guitar before so I was a bit skeptical but since I have given em this book they’ve been pooping way more frequently. 6 stars if it ever deserved them!

This book contains 232 pages. Great book.

Ich hatte auf eine schöne, konzentrierte Lektüre gehofft und bekam stattdessen Seiten voller Namedropping. Statt Sun Tzus knappen Lehren reiht diese Deluxe-Hardcover-Ausgabe endlose Erwähnungen von Personen und deren angeblichem Einfluss aneinander, garniert mit Zeitsprüngen über Jahrhunderte hinweg. Mal hier, 300 Jahre zurück, dann wieder irgendwo dazwischen. Nach einer Seite wusste ich oft nicht mehr, was in der vorherigen wichtig war, weil der Text ständig durch Kontextbrocken aus dem Nichts aus dem Tritt kommt. Das Problem ist weniger der Klassiker als die Aufbereitung. Sun Tzu funktioniert, wenn die Sätze Raum bekommen und man kurz innehalten kann. Hier wuchert das Beiwerk in den Haupttext hinein, sodass die Kernaussagen untergehen. Wer das Buch zum ersten Mal liest, wird damit wenig anfangen können; wer es kennt, wird genervt sein. Zwei Sterne, weil der Inhalt zeitlos bleibt, aber diese Edition ihn unnötig vernebelt.

Simple and easy to understand, but I think it is incomplete. My husband agree as well.

Great printing and binding. Book looks very nice. Ordered several others from same printing company. All nice.

It’s a very good book but I recommend reading it twice
