The Seven Military Classics Of Ancient China de Ralph D. Sawyer

The Seven Military Classics Of Ancient China

Autor Ralph D. Sawyer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 noi 2007 – vârsta de la 13 ani
The Seven Military Classics is one of the most profound studies of warfare ever written, a stanchion in sinological and military history. It presents an Eastern tradition of strategic thought that emphasizes outwitting one's opponent through speed, stealth, flexibility, and a minimum of force -- an approach very different from that stressed in the West. Safeguarded for centuries by the ruling elite of imperial China, even in modern times these writings have been known only to a handful of Western specialists.

This volume contains seven separate essays, written between 500 BCE and 700 CE, that preserve the essential tenets of strategy distilled from the experience of the most brilliant warriors of ancient China.
