Oct'2005 interview - unlike [OnWar], The [Art Of War] is a [TaoIst] text. The significance of this is that [SunTzu] sees war not as a means to an end, let alone as a positive good, but as a necessary evil. While fully aware of the vital role war plays in human affairs and prepared to do whatever it takes to win, he never allows the reader to forget what a horrible business it is. This in turn results in The [Art Of War] being pervaded by a deep humanity which [OnWar], precisely because it treats war as a means to an end, does not display.
