This is Ho Quang Loi's 11th book, but thanks to his talent and sharp intelligence, journalist Ho Quang Loi does not repeat himself. The publication of the book "Truth, Justice and the Pen" on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Vietnamese Revolutionary Press is of course aimed at the topicality that is the nature of journalism.
Readers are more demanding, they need new knowledge, they expect wise explanations from a talented journalist who was loved and trusted on new issues of today's life. I think Ho Quang Loi has shown that, so the book becomes attractive and interesting.

It must be said that the book is quite massive, consisting of 8 chapters, the amount of knowledge related to current events, culture and especially journalism is very dense, comprehensive, both broad and deep, certainly will satisfy the needs of the most demanding readers. It would not be an exaggeration to advise that the book will be a standard knowledge handbook not only for those working in journalism but also an intellectual address for cultural researchers, cultural managers, businessmen, leaders, managers, and policy makers related to culture and society to refer to.
It is no coincidence that in this precious book, the first article that Ho Quang Loi chose to put in the number one position is “A century of fighting for the country and the people” with the fulcrum being the story of Uncle Ho - the founder of Vietnam's revolutionary journalism. I completely agree when Ho Quang Loi explained: “Nguyen Ai Quoc clearly recognized the particularly important role of the press. At the end of 1924, when he returned to Guangzhou (China), Nguyen Ai Quoc immediately started publishing a political newspaper.”
Today, when the country is entering a new era, still in need of the dedication, dedication and sacrifice of journalists, Ho Quang Loi has made many journalists like me nod our heads as we read the words from his sincere heart: “The Vietnamese and world press are undergoing an unprecedented, profound transformation in the way they work, but the ethics, ideals and mindset of revolutionary journalists cannot be different. We work to protect justice and reason, work for the benefit of the country and the people”.
In this new book, Ho Quang Loi has devoted his efforts to analyzing and explaining the most fundamental, important, current, and most concerned issues of modern Vietnamese journalism. That is from the story of "The mindset of holding a pen" to "Journalism ethics", from "The light of humanity" with the story of doing decent journalism to "Stronger than the sword" with the story of "Fire tests gold, hardship tests... the pen", from "Accompanying to win together" with the daily story "When the press struggles with food and money". And especially the hot issue of journalism today is social networks, artificial intelligence (AI) and journalism with the most current story "AI - assistant or opponent?"...
The interesting issues about journalism in this book can be compared to comprehensive, valuable and extensive open research works, but are still attractive and convincing. Ho Quang Loi once said in a certain journalism work, roughly: The end of journalism is culture. I also want to quote many more good things that come from the words in the book "Truth, reason and the pen" but do not want to "take away the share" of readers, so I would like to leave it to those who will come into contact with and ponder this book.
