Luo Xiang's Utopia is the version of the Commercial Press. The Republic is Plato's masterpiece, not only a declaration of his political thoughts, but also an outline for philosophers and politicians to govern the country. Plato's highest ideal is that philosophers should be politicians and politicians should be philosophers. Philosophers are not nerds hiding in ivory towers. They should apply what they have learned and seek practice.

Book Abstracts in Utopia

The human soul has both good and bad sides. The so-called "own master" means that the bad side is controlled by the good side. Is it because women are doing and belong to women, or because men are doing and belong to men?

All kinds of talents are equally distributed between men and women. We should not let honor, wealth, power or poetry tempt us to treat justice and all virtues carelessly. Virtue is something that everyone can have. How many virtues each future has depends on how much he attaches importance to it. The soul is immortal, and it can endure all evil and goodness. Let us always stick to the upward road and pursue justice and wisdom.

Plato firmly believes that philosophers can be politicians at the same time and can really govern the world. The book covers justice, state, property, happiness, philosophers, truth, understanding, thought and other aspects, and has been a regular book for western intellectuals for more than two thousand years.
