'The Art Of The Deal' is the title of a book by Donald Trump.
I think it means 'The Art of Making Deals'.
But I don't get the grammar of the title. Can we say 'The Art Of The Dance' (The art of dancing) or 'The Art Of The Cinema'?
My problem is with the 'the' in front of 'deal'.
Maybe the title means 'the art that is in the deal'? Maybe the 'of' is possessive?
Gratefully,
