El Arte de la Guerra (Spanish Edition) - Hardcover

The warrior-philosopher and master strategist Sun Tzu, about whom little is known, compiled The Art of War more than two thousand years ago. Legend has it that he was known for the brilliant campaigns he led around the time of Confucius. His work was memorized and passed down orally, before eventually being copied onto bamboo strips and passed around.

“La traducción de la obra dos veces milenaria de Sun Tzu El arte de la guerra, por Thomas Cleary, pone de relieve de modo inmediato uno de los textos clásicos chinos más importantes. No hay ahí ni una máxima fechada ni una descripción vaga. ‘Lo mejor es ganar sin pelear’, dijo Sun Tzu. Para él la guerra era inseparable de la vida. Imprégnense de este libro y podrán arrojar a la papelera todos esos libros contemporáneos sobre liderazgo y gerencia”.—Newsweek

There’s not a dated maxim or vague prescription in it. ‘To win without fighting is best,’ Sun Tzu said. For him, war was coeval with life. Absorb this book, and you can throw out all those contemporary books about management leadership.”—Newsweek
