Um, they're the same thing. If you comprehend something, you understand the entire scope of it. They're synonyms.

Why Art of war is great book.
Because,Sun Tzu wrote about not only war but also human being.
He ejjected uncertain and setted in scientific.
All victor,s in world history followed His words.
