With an Introduction by Mishtooni Bose More's Utopia is a complex, innovative and penetrating contribution to political thought, cuhninating in the famous 'de*ion' of the Utopians, who live according to the principles of natural law, but are receptive to Christian teachings, who hold all possessions in common,and view golcl as worthless. Drawing on the ideas of Plato,St Augustine and Aristotle, Utopia was to prove seminal in its turn, giving rise to the genres of utopian and dystopian prose fiction whose practitioners include Sir Francis Bacon,H.G. Wells, Aldous Huxley and George Orwell. At once a critique of the social consequences of greed and a meditation on the personal cost of entering public service,Utopia dramatises the difficulty of balancing the competing claims of idealism and pragmatism, and continues to invite its readers to become participants in a compelling debate concerning the best state of a commonwealth.
本书是从战国时期起就风靡流传的军事著作，古今中外的军事家们都使用其中论述的军事理论来指导战争，而且，其中论述的基本理论和思想还被运用到了现代经营决策和社会管理方面。然而，这部著作者是谁呢？学术界议论纷纷，一种认为是春秋时期齐国的孙武所著，一种认为是孙膑整理而成，一种认为是战国初年某位山林处士编写，还有的说是三国时代曹操编撰的。直到1972年4月间，在山东临沂银雀山发掘的两座汉代墓葬中同时发现了用竹简写成的《孙子兵法》和《孙膑兵法》，这样，数百年的争论方告结束，《孙子兵法》的作者被确认为春秋时期吴国的将军孙武。
