Yes, it can be tedious at times, and yes-it can be disconnected with our modern world, but The Art of War definitely provides insights into the psychology of warfare, and of humanity in general. In some ways, it is the first textbook on the psychological concept of `groupthink`. It is interesting and well-worth the read. Again, good for DailyLit as well, since the points presented are short and can be included in single installments.
