The Art of War The Denma Translation

This translation of Sun Tzu’s classic text, conducted by the Denma Translation Group, offers a fresh perspective, moving beyond interpretations based solely on military strategy, Chinese history, or Taoist philosophy. It presents the ancient strategic principles as universally relevant for personal transformation and the creation of an enlightened society. The core argument is that conflict is an inescapable part of human life, and since aggression only leads to destruction, one must learn to work with conflict in a more profound and effective way. The translation includes line-by-line commentary and in-depth essays to reveal the broader implications of Sun Tzu's teachings and their applicability to everyday life. It defines 'War' as any situation demanding hard choices about creation and destruction, and 'Victory' as bringing others to embrace a larger view without resorting to battle.
