Chinese Military

"The Art of War" by Sun Tzu is a monumental work in the field of military strategy that has had a profound impact on future generations. It stands as the pinnacle of military literature worldwide.

As the Civil War rages, 15-year-old Thomas Beck longs to fight for his country. He's underage, but his brother, Robert, claims there's another reason he can't fight: There's no such thing as a Chinese Yankee. Assumed a slave because of his odd appearance - including his traditional Chinese queue (long braid) - Thomas soon discovers that giving battle with his regiment isn't enough to shed the Chinese label from his Yankee status.

China’s President faces many problems. Some, like conflict at the Indian border and in the South China Sea he created for himself. Others, like pending disasters at the Three Gorges Dam and China’s oldest nuclear plant, just happened. But the biggest threat to Communist rule is revolutionaries with Internet access through American satellites. Access that lets them spread propaganda, organize free of government surveillance, and launch cyberattacks. Four deniable Russian agents will travel to America to stop that threat.

No es de extrañar que los clásicos chinos sobre el arte de la guerra sean tan populares en nuestro tiempo. No es tan solo el hecho de que los chinos, tras siglos de guerras, llegaron a un conocimiento profundo de la estrategia y sus circunstancias, sino la forma en que plasmaron ese conocimiento. Allá donde los manuales occidentales se centraban en las siempre cambiantes armas y tácticas, los autores orientales buscaron una visión más universal de este tema y, al mismo tiempo, más humana.
