This book was certainly not what I expected. The majority of it is literally about war - terrains, combatants, spies, etc. Of course, much can be gleaned from the more general statements about leading a group, treatment of a group, discipline, etc.

In all, it is worth the read if you're managing a group, in the military, or simply want to understand the dynamics and inner-workings of approaching an enemy (in any sense of the word). There is, after all, much wisdom to be gained here.
