政客李斯,[2] 以《谏逐客书》得秦王嬴政重用,在破六国、建中央集权、统一文字方面均有功绩。官至丞相。秦始皇死后,他与赵高合谋,迫令公子扶苏自杀,立胡亥为帝。后为赵高所忌,被杀。留美博士钱宁所著《秦相李斯》一书,用现代的视角尽述李斯的一生沉浮,貌似调侃的文字下,是宫廷政事的诡谲多变,人性的冲突与智谋的竞争。(The politician, Li Si [2], was put in an important position by King Ying Zheng of Qin Dynasty with Persuade the King from Expelling Guest Minister. He made contributions in aspects such as defeating six states, establishing centralization of authority and unifying characters. His poet was as high as Chancellor. After the First Emperor of Qin died, he conspired with Zhao Gao to force Prince Fusu to commit suicide and made Huhai be the emperor. Later, Zhao Gao was afraid of him and killed him. Chancellor of Qin Dynasty: Li Si written by Qian Ning, PhD in America, narrates the ups and downs in the whole life of Li Si from modern perspective. Under the seemingly ridiculing text, there are treacherous and changeable political affairs in palace, conflicts in human nature and competition of resourcefulness.)
