Circa 500 BCE the Chinese General Sun Tzu composed the world's first textbook on military strategy. His basic tactics are as applicable today as they were 25 centuries ago: "All warfare is based on deception," "opportunities multiply as they are seized," "there has never been a protracted war from which a country has benefited" or "if ignorant both of your enemy and yourself, you are certain to be in peril."

>This traditional copy of "the Art of War" is several centuries old.
Sun Tzu's book became known to the West in the late 18th Century and has been a component of military studies ever since.
