The art of war text was good, the rest not so much

This book is an interesting Chinese book of military and political strategy. Unlike western political philosophy, Chinese political philosophy is more applied and practical, giving a lot of useful information in how the Chinese fought their wars in the Ancient Chinese eras. Some of the ideas can be applied today. Worth a read as it is easy to read.
