Art of War (military treatise)

The Art of War, written by Sun Tzu, is an ancient Chinese military treatise that explores strategies for success in warfare and conflict. It emphasizes the importance of careful planning, understanding both your own strengths and your opponent’s weaknesses, and adapting tactics to changing circumstances. The book also highlights the value of deception, flexibility, and knowing when to engage or avoid battle altogether. Though rooted in military context, its principles are often applied to competitive fields like business and leadership, focusing on strategic thinking, resource management, and achieving goals efficiently.
