The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the Late Spring and Autumn Period. The work, which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu, is composed of 13 chapters. Each one is devoted to an aspect of warfare and how it applies to military strategy and tactics. Civilization has adapted these teachings due to the following reasons: The book contained a detailed explanation and analysis of the Chinese military, from weapons and strategy to rank and discipline. It also stressed the importance of intelligence operatives and espionage to the war effort. Since Sun Tzu has long been considered to be one of history`s finest military tacticians and analysts, his teachings and strategies formed the basis of advanced military training for centuries to come. The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has influenced both Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy and beyond.
