About the Author

Sun Tzu is thought to have been a military general and adviser to the king of the southern Chinese state of Wu during the sixth century BCE. Although some modern scholars have called his authorship into doubt, the world's most influential and enduring treatise on military strategy, The Art of War, bears his name.

Sun Tzu was a general, military strategist, and philosopher of ancient China. The name by which we know him is actually an honorific title that means “Master Sun.” His birth name was Sun Wu, and outside of his family he was known by his courtesy name, Changqing. Traditionally he is considered the author of The Art of War, an influential treatise on military strategy. Sun Tzu has had a significant impact on Chinese and Asian history and cultures, both for writing The Art of War and for being a legendary historical figure.

Historically, he is placed in the Spring and Autumn period of China (722–481 BCE) as a military general in the service of King Helü of Wu, who lived c. 544–496 BCE. Modern scholars accept his historical placement while situating the creation of The Art of War in the Warring States period (476–221 BCE), based on the military descriptions in the text and the similarity of its prose to other works created at the beginning of the Warring States period.
