This book elucidates that Chinese military science embodies the peaceful pursuit of "prudent and skillful warfare" and "using war to stop war," while also encompassing the strategic essence of "planning before fighting" and "defeating the enemy by adapting to their situation." Furthermore, it emphasizes the military principles of "establishing a system beforehand" and "winning through good governance." From the ancient understanding that "the great affairs of the state are sacrifice and war," to the dialectical wisdom that "those who engage in civil affairs must have military preparations, and those who engage in military affairs must have civil preparations," military science has always been an important dimension of social life.
本书阐述中国兵学既蕴含“慎战善战”“以战止战”的和平追求，也囊括“先计后战”“因敌制胜”的谋略精髓，更强调“制必先定”“以治为胜”的治军要义。从“国之大事，在祀与戎”的古老认知，到“有文事者必有武备，有武事者必有文备”的辩证智慧，兵学始终是社会生活的重要维度。
