We review the theoretical underpinning of nonequilibrium umbrella sampling. We provide its historical context and show how it relates to other important results in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. Its relationships to the generalised Yamada-Kawasaki distribution function is explored. A new functional version of the Crooks Fluctuation Theorem is also presented.We review the theoretical underpinning of nonequilibrium umbrella sampling.
