Tombstone is a testament to inhumanity and occasional heroism that pits collective memory against the historical amnesia imposed by those in power

尽管从军事和国土面积来看，宋朝是个虚弱的朝代，但就经济和社会角度来看，宋朝却最繁荣昌盛、极具人文精神。那么，宋朝何以如此辉煌？作者认为，这是因为宋朝拥有一套理性、完备的政治制度。 在本书中，作者通过给女儿讲故事的形式，选取了25个极具代表性的历史典故，温情讲述了宋朝的种种政治制度，包括仁祖之法、虚君共治、台谏系统、文官制、公议、科举制、封驳制、回避制、独立审判等，完整地呈现了大宋的政治文明成就。通过分析宋朝权力的架构、制衡、运作和得失，作者为“宋朝何以如此繁荣”以及“后来如何走向没落”提供了一个生动而形象的答案。
