If you are interested in reading Sun Tzu's The Art of War, there are three translations that our guests recommend. The trick is you can't just read one version to get a holistic understanding of the Sunzi, you'll have to consider reading all three (or learn classical Chinese and read the original):
1) Victor Mair Translation: https://cup.columbia.edu/book/the-art-of-war/9780231133838
2) Roger T. Ames Translation: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/3172/sun-tzu-the-art-of-warfare-by-roger-t-ames/
3) Ralph Sawyer Translation: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/tzu-sun/the-art-of-war/9780813319513/?lens=basic-books
