Brings together three classic texts from China and Japan, The Art of War, The Book of Five Rings and The Way of the Samurai.

Together, these texts set out strategies and techniques for warfare and conflict that span more than 2500 years. In The Art of War, Chinese general Sun Tzu promotes strategic flexibility, quick thinking on the battlefield, and understanding the enemy's intentions.The Book of Five Rings covers swordsmanship and the martial arts, emphasizing the need to perfect technique to improve control and discipline. In The Way of the Samurai, Inazo Nitobe explores the moral code of the Japanese warrior class, ideals that still resonate in modern Japanese society and the wider world.

Author Biography

Inazo Nitobe (1862-1933) was scholar and an educator. After studying at John Hopkins University he maintained his links with the US and tried through his academic career 'to become a bridge across the Pacific'. He wrote Bushido: The Soul of Japan, published here as The Way of the Samurai, in 1899 and the book established his reputation in the West.

Miyamoto Musashi (1584-1645) was born into a samurai family in Harima province. His mother died soon after his birth, so he was raised by his step-mother and then his uncle, a monk from the Shoreian temple. While staying with his uncle, he was taught Zen Buddhisma and basic reading and writing. He had his first duel at the age of thirteen and went on to have 59 more, claiming never to have lost a single one. He completed his influential book on swordsmanship in May 1645, the year he died.

Sun Tzu was an accomplished general and strategist in China who lived during the Spring and Autumn period (771-485 BC). His treatise The Art of War is the most famous military text ever written and remains influential to this day.
