John Locke (1632-1704) is one of the greatest philosophers in human history. He laid the foundation of Classical Liberalism. Locke is also a great educator. He writes "Some Thoughts Concerning Education", the most important book about philosophy of eudcation. In which, he argues that the purpose of education is to develop children's character so that they become virtuous and wise gentlemen or gentlewomen. He believes that children have to be trained in self-discipline to become reason-guided independent persons, who can freely explore their own paths, pursuit their own dreams, and make their own contributions to human society.

<p>This book offers an archaeological study on China's ancient capitals. Using abundant illustrations of ancient capital sites, it verifies the archaeological discoveries with documentary records. The author introduces the dynamical interpretation of each ancient capital to the interpretation of the entire development history of China's ancient capitals. The book points out that for most of the almost 2000 years from the earliest Erlitou (&#20108;&#37324;&#22836;)to the Ye city (&#37050;&#22478;), there was an era where ancient capitals didn't have outer enclosures due to factors such as the strong national power, the military and diplomatic advantage, the complexity of the residents, and the natural conditions. Thus an era of "the huge ancient capitals without guards" lasting for over 1000 years formed. The concept that "China's ancient capitals don't have outer enclosures" presented in the book questions the traditional view that "every settlement has walled enclosures". Combining science with theory, it offers researchers of history a clear understanding of the development process of China's ancient capitals.&nbsp;</p>
