书籍简介与关于作者

约翰·斯图亚特·穆勒(1806-1873)是19世纪最有影响力的英国哲学家。他大量的智力成果涵盖了传统哲学和逻辑、经济学、政治学等一系列学科，这本著作也包括其中。这些成果现在被称为社会科学的领域的奠基性文件。

在《道德科学的逻辑》一书中，穆勒运用他相当大的天赋来研究人类行为、社会和历史是如何建立在理性、哲学的基础上的。这位哲学家认为，偶然的经验主义和直接的实验不适用于研究复杂的社会现象。相反，从历史概括中得出的“经验法则”，必须从人类本性的演绎科学中推导出来。自从这篇论文出版以来，穆勒的见解和方法在一个半世纪中一直是相关的。哲学和社会科学的历史学家以及社会科学本科专业的学生将对本书产生很大的兴趣。

A highly influential figure in the Age of Enlightenment in England and France, whose works helped inspire the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, John Locke was one of the most important political theorists in Western history. In The Second Treatise of Government, a major contribution to the principles underlying modern democracies, he achieved two objectives: refuting the concept of the divine right of monarchy, and establishing a theory of government based on the ultimate sovereignty of the people.

In A Letter Concerning Toleration, composed as early as 1667 but not published for political reasons until 1689 -- after the Glorious Revolution -- Locke pleaded for religious tolerance on grounds similar to his argument for political freedom, i.e., that all men are by nature free, equal, and independent, and are entitled to freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and freedom of worship. To help guarantee the latter freedom, Locke called for separation of church and state.

The basis of social and political philosophy for generations, these works laid the foundation of the modern democratic state in England and abroad. Their enduring importance makes them essential reading for students of philosophy, history, and political science.
