An insult on Sun Tzu
The one star goes to the design and packaging of the book. The content of it deserves an even lower rating. I didnt blame the author for his poor translation and interpretation of Sun Tzu's work (As a Chinese who had studied Sun Tzu's Art of War seriously, I am confident that I understand that much more than the majority of non Chinese). What upsets me most is the author's poor market advice/application on every right page of a [strange] Sun Tzu's adage in the Art of War on every right page. First, there were always no relationship between the two. Second, even a veteran trader and trading book fan like me was frequently brought to dont know where by the author's frequent use of very vague words and flamboyant talk.
Dont buy it. You can spend your money and time much more productively on other trading books.

Sun Tsu's Art of War for Traders
I enjoyed the book, such as it is. I read most of it in the book store standing in line to buy it. It's not a technical "this is how you do it" book, it is more of an inspirational, motivational read. Isn't that what philosophy is for anway...?Pick it up for a word of confidence, but not for technicl advice.
