--Extracts from the canon of traditional Chinese commentators who have explained Sun Tzu's wisdom over the centuries
--Notes
--A bibliography
--A chronology of Chinese dynasties
--A map
--An illuminating introduction on the warrior-philosopher Sun Tzu and the role of The Art of War in history and today
