"Ralph Sawyers Übersetzung von Sun Pin... trägt auf wichtige Weise zu unserem Wissen über den Ort der Kriegsführung in der klassischen chinesischen Zivilisation bei." John Keegan.
Die enorme erneuerte Popularität von Sun Tzu's The Art of War hat das Bewusstsein für die große chinesische Tradition des Schreibens über die Theorie und Praxis des Krieges erhöht. Unter anderen bedeutenden Werken ist dieses 4. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Studie des angeblichen Urenkels von Sun Tzu. Es erweitert sowohl die strategische Philosophie von Sun Tzu als auch entwickelt sie zu einem neuen Stil. Unterteilt in 33 Abschnitte, umfasst es Themen wie ungünstiges Gelände, die Ursprünge des Krieges, "Gast"- und "Gastgeber"-Armeen, die 10 strategischen Anwendungen der Kavallerie und mehr

This tradition has always emphasized that warfare is as much the deployment of spiritual and mental forces as of combat forces, as much a matter of patience and attention as of brute strength. As a result, new generations of readers have found many of its precepts applicable to forms of struggle far from any actual battlefield. While it has brought this tradition greater exposure, the reception of Art of War threatens to overshadow and obscure the other significant texts that followed in its wake. Foremost among these is Military Methods ef the Art ef War, written in the fourth century B.C. by the purported great~grandson of Sun~tzu, the general Sun Pin. Military Methods is both an extension of the strategic philosophy of the earlier work and a development of a new strategic style~one that enabled Sun Pin to guide the armies of the province of Ch' i to decisive victories over their enemies in the battles of Kuei~ling and Ma~ling. Long believed lost, the text of Military Methods was recovered from a Han dynasty tomb in 1972. The salvaged original, fragmentary in nature, is divided into thirty~three sections covering such topics as unfavorable terrains, the origins of war, "guest" and "host" armies, "male" and "female" cities, and the ten strategic uses of cavalry. To bridge the gaps in the original, translator Ralph Sawyer, the leading authority on Chinese military history and its major texts, has provided extensive commentary and notes, as well as a detailed historical introduction.
