《铅笔的故事》是典型的伦纳德·里德式的作品:富有想象力,朴素而意味深长,洋溢着对自由的热爱,这一切,贯穿在伦纳德所写的一切著作或所做的一切活动中。跟他的其他著作一样,他并没有试图告诉人们应该做什么,或如何管理自己。他只是试图增进人们对他们自己及其生活于其中的制度的理解。 The Pencil Story is a quintessential Leonard Reid style: imaginative, simple and meaningful, full of love for freedom, all through the work or the work of Leonard In all activities. Like all his other books, he did not try to tell people what to do or how to manage themselves. He is only trying to promote people’s understanding of themselves and the systems in which they live.
