威尔·杜兰特（Will Durant，1885—1981），美国作家、哲学家、历史学家，普利策奖（1968年）、美国总统自由勋章（1977年）获得者。 早年与胡适均曾师从美国实用主义哲学家杜威，1917年获哥伦比亚大学博士学位，前期著作以《哲学的故事》一书畅销成名。此后著作亦以其鲜明主张的自由和公平，赢得东方读者包括亚洲首位诺贝尔文学奖得主泰戈尔的尊重。后半生更以莫大的毅力和勇气撰写《文明的故事》，超级马拉松般持续近半世纪，曾环球考察实地历史（包括广东、上海等地），最后一段写作行程幸有金婚伴侣杜兰特夫人执笔加入，终于留下这一部传世之作。 杜兰特博士亦可谓20世纪最会讲故事的人，讲完了“哲学的故事”，再讲“文明的故事”。终其一生，他都热情地致力于将哲学和知识从学术的象牙塔中解放出来，化复杂为易懂，我们读者获益良多。 他说，历史的教训，就是我们总也记不住...(展开全部)
