THE ART OF WAR The Denma Translation

Whether or not THE ART OF WAR is new to you, this successful offering from the Denma Translation Group is worth adding to your collection. (The original text is attributed to Sun Tzu, circa 300 B.C.) Briefly, the text offers strategies for dealing with conflict in life, from war itself to interpersonal relations. The result of 10 years of analysis and debate, the recording presents the best of both worlds--the pure, unadulterated translation, as well as a translation punctuated by understated commentary. Denma went to great lengths to preserve both the intent and the tone of the oldest extant version of the text. The result is an eminently listenable and informed piece that will instruct and stimulate for years to come. D.J.B. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/SEP 03]
