The Art of War, by Sun Tzu

I sometimes watch games like Starcraft... so thinking in terms of surface area is just obvious to me... but 1000 years ago that simple insight would already make you a better than average tactician.

There was no internet back then... so some people wrote a few tidbits down... like attack where your enemy is weak... great stuff, but not particularly insightful in the 21st century.

More often than not the genius lies in how the commander executes those obvious strategies.

I looked it up and watched a pronunciation video on his name. It did not say Tu-Zoo.

Same here, I looked it up too. It seems it's pronounced the way it looks.

It's Sun like the sun, Tzu with a T only with an S instead of the Z and then U like ooh. It's so easy. Haven't you ever fought against an ancient Chinese warlord before?

Exactly. Clearly the only logical pronunciation tongue.
