Everything is Wrong is the representative work of Legalists, with a total of 20 volumes. Han Fei (about 280 ~ 233 BC), later known as Han Feizi or Zi Han, was a son of Korea during the Warring States Period. In Xunzi, he and Li Si both like the study of the name of punishment and magic, and they are the representatives of Legalism.
The book consists of fifty-five independent essays, most of which are from Han Fei. Except for a few articles, the title of each article shows the main idea of the article. The core of his theory is the combination of law, technique and potential based on absolute monarchy, and he upholds the evolutionary view of history, advocates extreme utilitarianism, thinks that people focus on interests, supplemented by benevolent education, and emphasizes the rule of law and employing people, which has had a great impact on the establishment of China's feudal social system after Qin and Han Dynasties.
This book is unique among the pre-Qin philosophers, with sharp thoughts, sharp words, strict logic and good use of fables. After sorting out its fables, it was compiled into various fables such as Inside and Outside Stories, Forest Stories, Yu Lao and Shi Guo.
