"In this groundbreaking work of speculative fiction, Thomas More transports readers to the island of Utopia, a society built on rationality, equality, and communal living. Through the eyes of Raphael Hythloday, a traveler who recounts his adventures, More presents a stark contrast to the corrupt, class-stratified world of 16th-century Europe. The Utopians, living in perfect harmony with nature and one another, have abolished poverty, crime, and inequality, while embracing enlightened governance, free education, and religious tolerance. But beneath the idyllic veneer of Utopia lies a deeper philosophical inquiry: what does the perfect society look like, and is it achievable in our own world? More's thought-provoking critique of politics, social structures, and human nature raises timeless questions about justice, individual freedom, and the balance between idealism and practicality."
Thomas More (Author), Barnaby Edwards (Narrator)

"What is Political Science? Within human society, it is customary to distinguish between the following spheres: economic, political, social, and spiritual. The political sphere is important in that it involves and determines the interactions of different political powers. This understanding lies at the foundation of any political analysis of public life. Politics as a specific sector within human society is as old as it is modern. Many famous statesmen and scientists are credited as the authors of laws and political systems. In today's global community, facing growing pressures of political extremism and radicalism, knowledge of basic political science principles should help students develop a democratic ethos and foster qualities, such as political tolerance, compromise, and cooperation, while learning to express and defend their interests in a civilized manner. The foundation of political science lies in the accumulated knowledge of mankind. Each included piece o this collection is required reading at some of the best universities on the planet including: Harvard, Princeton, Yale, and Columbia Universities, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, among others.

"Utopia is a social and political satire, in the form of a traveler’s tale in an apparently blissful society based upon natural reason and justice. Sir Thomas More explores the role of philosophy—and unrealistic idealism—in government and offers a scathing analysis of the politics and society of his time."
Thomas More (Author), Graham Scott (Narrator)

In this text, More sets out to create an idealized version of a commonwealth in order to explore the most desirable forms of government and social organization. Through his vivid imagery, he creates a vision of a utopian society that is based upon the socio-economic principles of communal ownership, religious tolerance, and gender equality.

"Thomas More Ütopya'da hayali bir adada kurulmuş ideal bir ülke tasviri yapar. Yönetim biçiminden sosyal yaşama kusursuz bir devlet ve toplum modeli çizer. More, dostu Erasmus'a kurgusal modelini şöyle anlatır: 'Ütopya'da, her şeyin herkese ait olduğu bu yerde, insanlar, bütün ihtiyaçlarının karşılanacağından eminler. Orada zengin de yoktur fakir de. Kimsenin hiçbir şeyi yoktur, ancak herkes zengindir. Bundan daha büyük bir zenginlik olabilir mi? Günlük ekmeğin peşinde koşmadan, oğlunun sefalet içinde yaşayacağını düşünmeden, kızının çeyizi için endişe duymadan, herkesin; kadınların, çocukların, torunların, torunlarının torunlarının ve daha sonraki kuşakların mutlu bir yaşam süreceğinden emin olarak…' İnsanlığa 'yok-ülke' ya da 'olmayan ülke' anlamındaki 'ütopya' kavramını armağan eden Thomas More'un eseri, yazıldığı günden beri pek çok felsefe ve düşünce akımına, sanat eserine ve siyasi harekete ilham kaynağı olmaya devam ediyor."
