qatsiBook Review: The Art of War, by Sun Tzu, edited by James Clavell
I'm behind again with book reviews. Someone once described a former development manager as "going to bed with [a book by] Scott Adams under one side of the pillow, and Sun Tzu under the other". I was hoping for something with a bit more philosophy, but really this turns out to be quite literal. It's a slim volume but still generously expanded with footnotes. On the whole I preferred Confucius.
