I definitely have Sun Tzu on my bookshelf. Ever since I read The Art of War for a PoliSci class in college I have owned a copy. I think that Tzu's most important lesson is that you have to win the battle BEFORE stepping on the battlefield. I think a lot of his writing can be applied to everyday conflict.
The Art of Peace is kind of the counterpoint to The Art of War, IMO. It's more about maintaining harmony. I think I appreciated the Art of War more (LOL) but maybe I'll be more harmonious when I get older!
