I have listened so many times...

...and never managed to stay awake until the end. Perfect for insomnia, sleeping in an unfamiliar place, power napping & relaxation. It is so soothing.

Half book is music & adds nothing

The spoken content was very educational. The Music was not and adds nothing of use.
The make is poorly designed

The Art of The War, reviewed by Tevin Gongo

Of course that is a classic. I have to say that I feel a little uncomfortable with the concept of always thinking about winning the battle.

I can appreciate the benefits of mastering those principles for anyone engaging in battles (politics, economics, socials...) but unless it is the last option, I prefer to engage with others thinking win-win.

I will certainly read that book a few more times this year and in the years to come.

As a classic, it is worth reading it, as for its daily use, I guess it is needed to read it over and over so it gets easier to really understand the principles and understand how to apply them correctly in our everyday life.

Music was not what I wanted.

I was amazed to find a large portion of the end of the book to be music. It added nothing to my learning experience.

Not for me

The book is very famous and talks about itself, however, and as a non-native English speaker I faced serious difficulties in listening and understanding this book. I'm a member with Audible and I download a new book every month, but this is the only one I had difficulties in listening to.

Perhaps my 1 start rating is unfair because I have not listened to the book, but I cannot give more.
