Work Description
The words of the famous and ancient Chinese general Sun Tzu have been read, studied, and applied by millions of students of warfare and those who compare their livelihood to be a similar life and death competition. Many advisors to the movers and shakers of the world have made their fortunes by converting Sun Tzu’s words into the strategies and tactics of business and politics.
Many aspects of this 2500 year old treatise on how to wage war have a direct application to the tactics and strategies used in
games played upon pocket billiard tables. This book is a presentation of those similarities. For the differences between actual war and pool, read the Concept of pool in the Notes section at the end of the book.

As you become aware of these new ways of thinking, your viewpoint will shift and adjust. You will see aspects of the game that previously were hidden. These discoveries belong to you and you alone. This is your personal voyage of discovery that leads to your new realization. The application of that knowledge will stay with you until the last day you ever pick up a stick.
