Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus
Perhaps the most important work of philosophy written in the twentieth century, the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus first appeared in 1921 and was the only philosophical work that Ludwig Wittgenstein published during his lifetime. Written in short, carefully numbered paragraphs of extreme compression and brilliance, it immediately convinced many of its readers and captivated the imagination of a generation of philosophers. Influencing the Logical positivists of the 1920s and 1930s, the book later went to grip the minds of many other philosophers, convincing many that propositions were pictures of reality. In this edition, David Pears and Brian McGuinness have completely revised their translation based upon Wittgenstein's own suggestions and comments in his correspondence with C. K. Ogden, Wittgenstein's first translator. In addition, this edition contain the introduction by Bertrand Russell which appeared in the original English.

博弈论经典
《博弈论经典》收集了自约翰·冯·诺伊曼(JohnVon Neumann 和奥斯卡·摩根斯坦(Oskar Morgen stern)出版《博弈论与经济行为》(普林斯顿,1944)以来,对这一领域具有基础贡献的经典文章。博弈论最先由冯·诺伊曼在1928年的文章中给出了严格的公式表述,是数学和经济学的分支,它是用来模型化个人间竞争与合作的重要分析工具。该研究的“英雄时代”开始于20世纪40年代后期,并奠定了现代理论的基础。在过去的15年里,博弈论已成为经济理论的主流模型,并且对政治科学、生物学和国际安全研究作出了重大贡献。博弈论在经济理论中的重要作用的见证是:1994年的诺贝尔经济学奖颁发给先驱的博弈论家约翰·C·海萨尼,约翰·纳什和莱茵哈德·泽尔滕。他们获奖的基础研究都包含在这《博弈论经典》中。 哈罗德·库恩他自己因为对扩展型博弈的重新表述而对博弈论作出了巨大贡献,《博弈论经典》精选了对现代博弈论具有核心贡献的18篇文章。从各方面来说,它们对从事博弈论的研究者,对于经济学、政治科学和生物学的学生来说,其价值是无限的。 -
