The Art of War
by Sun Tzu (c. 554BC – c. 496 BC)
The Art of War addresses strategy in a broad fashion, touching upon public administration and planning. The text outlines theories of battle but also advocates diplomacy and cultivating relationships with other nations as essential to the health of a state.
