The book, “Understanding Political Philosophy in the Context of Social Life” written by Mel Thompson and translated by Narges Tajik Neshatia, was published by Pegah Rosgarno Publications in 1397. In this book, the author, adopting an audience-oriented strategy and paying attention to the issues and phenomena of the political day, has emphasized their analysis in the framework of political philosophy. One of the remarkable features of the book is the use of historical routines and trends in paying attention to the fundamental and modern concepts of political philosophy versus political science and reviving the normative attitude towards political affairs. In this article, the book is reviewed from the perspective of method and theoretical basis and analysis of data, and in general concludes that despite the use of new methods of writing, and structuring the text, and creating a content and form appeal to the audience, this book has not been able to show a proper analysis and explanation of the application of political philosophy in the problems of the social day. In this article, the reason for such a situation in the author’s strategic departure from attention and focus on political philosophy, from the fourth chapter onwards, scattering and confusion in the design of very diverse topics and phenomena and semantic and conceptual imbalance in expressing the views of philosophers and political thinkers are observed.
