Il décrit un état d'esprit plus que des tactiques, et c'est probablement pour cela qu'il vieillit si bien et continue à connaître un franc succès en dépit de ses 2 500 ans. Domitille Germain, consultante et sinologue propose une lecture fine du célèbre livre de Sun Tzu.

En El arte de la guerra, Sun Tzu hace análisis detallados y recomendaciones útiles sobre trece temas principales de la estrategia militar: la planeación, el reto, el ataque, el posicionamiento, la dirección, fuerzas y debilidades, las maniobras, la implementación de las tácticas, el avance, el terreno, las fases de una campaña, las armas y el uso de información.
