Reihe: Belt, road & Chinese culture / Zhai Jiangyue

This book explores The Art of War. Sunzi set forth many brilliant arguments, he was keenly aware of the fact that without exception, each and every battle is fought for profit. So it is of prime importance to obtain the biggest profit at a minimum cost, and the very best is “conquering without fighting”. With the help of some illustrations and classical stories, we try to illustrate the essence of traditional Chinese culture.
