War, Huhhhnn, What Is It Good For? (Art?)
March 26, 2008I
f you’ve never read Sun Tzu’s Art of War, do yourself a favor and read it now, online, for free. Art of War isn’t just about ancient Chinese battle strategies — the reason this book has maintained its intrigue and republish-ability is because of its ability to be applied to business and social interaction. It’s more of a philosophical guide than a blueprint for combat in our day and age, but you and your students can certainly learn a thing or two from ‘Ol Sun Tzu. The guide at this website allows readers to get insight and further description of passages that may seem a bit archaic. Furthermore, you can use the site for quick searches or even link an easy-to-read, self-page-turning e-book.
If reading isn’t your thing, or if you are my Dad — who has to drive over an hour and a half each way to and from work — you might need an audio version. Luckily, this site — AudiobookTreasury.com — will let you get it just as freely and cheaply as the one aforementioned. Just download the mp3s and you can probably figure out the rest. Either way, you’ll be able to easily realize what has made this literature last as long as it has. -JEREMY S. GRIFFIN
