    X. Q. Yue / 樂熙祺
    本書試圖用一種比較簡潔的方法和邏輯來分析和理解人類的一些活動,解讀眾說紛紜的部分歷史。本書側重人類近現代史,範圍以東亞為主,並與同時代的歐美人物和事件進行對比。 一段歷史、一個事件有上百種口述、記述、轉述、加工的解讀角度和方法,掩蓋、扭曲、滅失、捏造、誇大等編造的方法更多。所以,去偽存真,前後參照,內外對比,揣摩臆測的工作量也很大。希冀各方讀者給予不吝給予指正。 謹以此書獻給我的愛妻、女兒和兒子、父母以及姐弟、眾多老師同學朋友等所有愛護、包容、生養陪伴、教導啟發幫扶我的人們。 ●第一章/看人評事 多標準● 當我第一次看到如下詩句:' 丈夫隻手把吳鉤,意氣高於百尺樓。一萬年來誰著史,三千裡外覓封侯。' 就聯想到唐代詩人李賀(790-816)的:'男兒何不帶吳鉤,收取關山五十州?請君暫上淩煙閣,若個書生萬戶侯?' 猜想此等意境豪氣一定出於某個歷...
