description: The best Art of War for application in competitive situations. How much can one big mistake cost ? Everything ? The Art of War Deluxe provides strategies and tactics for conventional war / competition. It is useful in developing offensive strategies and a critical guide for defense: learning what not to do and how to avoid competitive / enemy traps. It also explains external and internal psychological strategies. The Deluxe (3CD) version seamlessly integrates the comments and explanations of China's most respected experts on Sun Tzu's text since 500 BC. It "fills in the blanks" and clarifies the military vocabulary, concepts, and strategies within the text which taken at face value can easily be misunderstood. It also includes the bonus "Sun Tzu and the Concubine" story and "The Sayings of Confucius." Stylistically, the Martial Strategists version is quick paced and driving. You are involved in a critical mission - YOUR VICTORY - and the general is doing everything in his power to aid you. Sound effects, music, and some levity are used to keep you interested and engaged: helping you retain more and making the information actually useful. Sun Tzu advises "know the enemy and yourself." Competitive versions were studied before making this edition to ensure that you get the best, most useful Art of War. It was designed to be the most practical version for application in combat - be it war, business, sports, or any other form. Its focus is winning and avoiding costly mistakes. The integrated comments are related to strategy, victory, and crucial historical and cultural background and context. Unlike other versions that focus on teaching Buddhism / Pacifism and Chinese military history this version focuses on strategy and victory as Sun Tzu intended. It provides THE CRUCIAL INFORMATION - HOW TO PROPERLY INTERPRET SUN TZU'S TEXT AND APPLY IT TO WIN, SURVIVE, AND SUCEED IN YOUR EFFORTS!
