It is known that the transcription of Bamboo Suanshushu was first published in Cultural Relics, No. 9, 2000. But the transcription is difficult to read, because in it there are many misprinted, miscopied, missing words and mistakes. Much is done in Peng’s book to restore the order of bamboo strips, to collate the miscopied words and to correct the m istaken numbers. Based on analysis of historical background and archaeological d iscoveries, Peng Hao concluded that in Suanshushu many problems did not appear at the same time, and that some problems were closely related to the official affairs of lower government administration during the pre-Qin peri od. So his statement is very important for exploring the evolution of mathematic s from pre-Qin period to Han dynasty. But, through critical reading, the paper points out that in Peng’s book there are some wrong collations and annotations which were made by Peng himself and some mistakes in Suanshushu which he failed to correct. Although Peng’s book is really praiseworthy in prov iding facilities for further study, the numerous defects in it make readers feel regretable indeed.展开更多
