The Art of War is a Chinese military treatise written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it has long been praised as the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time.

The Art of War is an album by rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony that was released on July 29, 1997. The Art of War was a major departure from the group's darker, E. 1999 Eternal style, with Bone finding more to talk about on their songs. Originally rumored to be called "DNA Level C" (Cleveland backwards), The Art of War was created as a war against all the rappers that Bone felt were copying their style and orignality, as well as those who accused Bone of doing the same.

The Art of War is a Canadian/American action movie. The title refers to the ancient Chinese text of the same name by war strategist Sun Tzu, which has some bearing on the film's plot.
