The Art of War, an influential document written by the ancient Chinese military strategist Sunzi (also known as Sun-Tzu), is one of the first known treatise on warfare strategy in history. Known in Chinese as Bingfa, this guide features information about various battle maneuvers and tactics, as well as strategic advice on collecting information about the enemy’s location and battlefield terrain before attacking. It is hard to know exactly when The Art of War was written, but most scholars think it was written between 475 and 221 B.C.E., during the Warring States period. Scholars also cannot be sure about the details of the life of its author, Sunzi, but they believe he was a general working for the Wu state. It is clear that whatever Sunzi’s life experiences were, he had a great deal of knowledge about warfare and tactical training.

The Art of War by Sun Tzu is an ancient Chinese treatise on military strategy and tactics. It emphasizes the importance of preparation, adaptability, and understanding both oneself and the enemy to achieve victory. Key principles include strategic planning, deception, resource management, and exploiting the enemy’s weaknesses. Sun Tzu advocates for winning without conflict whenever possible and stresses the value of leadership, discipline, and intelligence. While rooted in warfare, its teachings have been widely applied to business, politics, and personal development as a guide to achieving success through strategy. (Summary by Dream AudioBooks)

On the WPHP, our encounters with books and the women who worked on them are bibliographically-focused, as they must be for a project of this scale—focused attention on the contents of every work and the stories of their producers simply isn’t possible. But that doesn’t mean we don’t want to engage with the works that closely—the opposite is true, in fact!—and for Episode 4 of Season 5 of The WPHP Monthly Mercury, “A Newcastle Novelist”, we were delighted to interview Dr. Tricia Monsour from t...
