Tidlös asiatisk klassiker i nyreviderad översättning

För 2500 år sedan skrev den kinesiske generalen Sun Tzu vad som kom att bli en av de mest inflytelserika krigsstrategiska texterna någonsin. Krigets konst föregrep vad Platon skulle formulera i Staten och Machiavelli i Fursten.  En absolut klassiker i genren krigsstrategi och en självklar referensbok även för många politiker, affärsstrateger och elitidrottare.  I svensk översättning av Bertil Häggman, som här reviderat sin tolkning från 1989. 

SUN TZU, född cirka 540 f. Kr, död cirka 496 f. Kr, var en kinesisk general, författare och filosof. Krigets konst är det östra Asiens överlägset mest klassiska verk inom militärlitteratur. Ända sedan den översattes till europeiska språk på 1700-talet har den varit en klassiker också i västvärlden.
