Proslulé pojednání mistra Suna o válečném umění se těší neutuchajícímu zájmu čtenářů i po více než dva a půl tisíci let, které uplynuly od jeho napsání. V čem spočívá jeho obliba? Paradoxně nikoliv v jeho válečnických aspektech, nýbrž v inspirativní síle pro taktické jednání s lidmi. Jeho myšlenky ocení každý člověk, neboť taktika je nutná v manželství, partnerství a vlastně ve všech vztazích, v nichž nechceme jen stále ustupovat nebo se podřizovat záměrům druhých. Stejně tak moudrost mistra Suna osloví manažery, pro které je vedení a motivování lidí i boj s konkurencí podstatnou náplní práce. Mistr Sun učí člověka důkladně zhodnotit situaci i naděje na prosazení vlastních záměrů. Základem válečného umění totiž není demonstrace síly, ale předvídavost, schopnost odhadnout protivníka a prosadit se vůči němu bez zbytečného prolévání krve a ztrát.
