    Series Book 1 - 國鍵文集
    《國鍵文集》主要輯錄潘國鍵博士六十歲前在香港《華僑日報》、《明報》及加拿大《時代周報》、《明報》、《星島日報》發表的專欄文字。分「時評」「 教育」「生活」「書畫」「宗教」共五輯。討論範圍甚廣,內容極豐。且旁徵博引,於嚴肅時嚴謹,於輕鬆時幽默。文言、白話與香港俚語,共冶一爐。可謂別樹一格。序浮生若寄,彈指便一甲子。年達耳順,獨眼漸盲。筆耕之業,恐亦去緣盡之期不遠。今幸得內子曾佩鑾相助,終集成此書。共分五輯,曰「時評」「教育」「生活」「書畫」「宗教」,大多為曩日發表於香港《華僑日報》(1984年1月至1990年5月)、《明報》(1992年1月至1995年6月),及加拿大之《時代周報》(1988年1月至6月)、《明報》(1997年4月至2002年8月)與《星島日報》(2003年2月至2005年11月)等近千篇之舊作,聊算半生學術寫作以外胡扯瞎吹之小結。褒褒貶貶,俱還天主﹔是是非非,盡化色空 ...
