Considered the oldest and one of the best treatises on war and military strategy, the Art of War is a text that has been cherished by military leaders, not only from Asia throughout the ages but also by the entire modern world.

Written somewhere in the 6th or 5th century BC, the treatise, which guides a general on how to manage his army under any circumstances, whether offensively or defensively, is said to have been one of the reasons for the great victories of Mao Zedong, the Viet Cong, and even Napoleon himself.

Today, the author's advice is applied not only by military leaders but also in the fields of international relations, entrepreneurship, and even in the reader's interactions with any third party in everyday life.

In the Greek translation, which is based not only on recognized Western translations from the early 20th century but also on archaeological, historical, and philological discoveries made since then, a significant number of original footnotes and comments are provided so that the original text can be fully understood by the Greek reader.
