希拉里•普特南系当代美国著名哲学家。《理性、真理与历史》是他的代表作之一，《理性、真理与历史》自1981年问世以来，短短数年时间便拥有了当代经典的声望，美国哲学学会曾为此书召开专题讨论会。
普特南广泛、透彻地把握了当代哲学重大问题和主要潮流，在本书中对波及语言哲学、逻辑哲学、精神哲学等众多哲学分支的大量哲学问题进行了深入浅出的阐述，尤其对真理的本质、合理性和历史等问题提出了独到的见解，其目的在于打破一系列长期支配哲学家及普通人的二分法思维方式，克服主观与客观之间、事实与价值之间、独断论与相对主义之间等的一系列对立。

In a grand and immemsely readable synthesis of historical, political, cultural, and economic analysis, a prize-winning historian depicts much more than a break with England. He gives readers a revolution that transformed an almost feudal society into a democratic one, whose emerging realities sometimes baffled and disappointed its founding fathers.

Oliver Wendell Holmes served on the U S Supreme Court from 1902 to 1932. He is considered to be one of the most influential judges ever to serve on the court. His wit and concise writing style make his opinions some of the best-written documents to come out of the Supreme Court. Holmes considered law to be the barometer of our moral life. The history of law is also the history of man's moral development. The practice of law makes for better citizens and good men.
