太白阴经

by 李筌

《太白阴经》是中国古代的一部综合性的军事著作，分人谋、杂仪、战具、预备、阵图、祭文、捷书、药方、杂占、遁甲、杂式等篇。杜佑《通典》“兵类”取通论二家，一为李靖《兵法》，一即此书。传世版本主要有《黑海金壶》、《守山阁丛书》，都为十卷。此书内容丰富，作者在进书表中称：“人谋、筹策、攻城、器械、屯田，战马、营垒、阵图。囊括无遗，秋毫毕录。其阴阳之道，风云向背，虽远人事，就存而不忘。”

It contains almost everything an emperor/ general needs to rule a country or an army. From agriculture to political strategies, military affairs to geographic science, moreover, it provides interesting and yet proven to be effective numerology, which has led to controversial arguments for years. I've read about 70- 80 Chinese traditional military books and this is one of my two favs. The other is <反经> (), also written in the Tang Dynasty. One of the reasons I love about these two books is that it provides knowledge not only powerful in politics/ military but also handy in everyday life.
