The Artist of Evolution is an evolutionary reframing of the text The Art of War. Revealing Sun Tzu as a naturalist in the mold of Charles Darwin. As his faith, Taoism, looked to the divine patterns in nature for wisdom. Enabling him to intuitively understand that human warfare was just another competitive pattern in what Charles Darwin termed 'the war of nature'. So, he systematically studied the competitive patterns in nature to gain advantage in war.This book proceeds chapter by chapter, line by line evolutionary reframing Sun Tzu’s text. Identifying the hidden conceptual pattern cutting across Sun Tzu’s theory. Clarifying concepts and correcting mistranslations in the original ancient text. Thereby providing new insights and competitive value to strategists and leaders across human activity. Made possible by adopting the integrated perspective of the greatest minds of history - Charles Darwin, Laozi, Parmenides, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, etc.The Artist of Evolution is a methodical and comprehensive reframing of Sun Tzu’s text that makes his competitive advantages accessible and comprehensible to every competitive field - business, sports, politics, warfare, etc. And it will digitally disrupt and revolutionize the academic fields of military science, political science, business management, sports management, digital transformation, and so many more. It is intended to be a leadership and strategic thinking primer for leaders in any field of human activity. And renew interest in ancient texts and authors. As a source of timeless wisdom yet unmatched by modern science. Produced primarily by the power of human imagination.
