The Art of War and other Laws of Power (mobi) Review

what a classic piece! i ordered this through my kindle for {BestCustomerReview}, so, the price was perfect! honestly, i can not comment on the quality of the translation. i assume that it is accurate. i found that it was a fast read, until i stopped and thought about what he was saying. the author's comments often coincided with the places where i felt the need to stop and reflect. this was superb and it is a book that i intend to re-read. while i prefer peace to war, the content herein can be applied to even peaceful efforts. i highly recommend this book for every cadet in the academies and junior officers. everybody else with an interest in the strategies and tactics of competitive engagement also would benefit from reading this. i give this a solid "A".
