解:由题意可得:
$ \begin {aligned}Q&=(\mathrm {m^2} - m + 1)(\mathrm {m^2} + m + 1)\\&=[(\mathrm {m^2} + 1) - m][(\mathrm {m^2} + 1) + m]\\&=(\mathrm {m^2} + 1)^2 -\mathrm {m^2}\\&=m^4 + 2\ \mathrm {m^2} + 1 -\mathrm {m^2}\\&=m^4 +\mathrm {m^2} + 1\end {aligned}$
$ \begin {aligned}P&=(m + 1)^2(m - 1)^2\\&=[(m + 1)(m - 1)]^2\\&=(\mathrm {m^2} - 1)^2\\&=m^4 - 2\ \mathrm {m^2} + 1\end {aligned}$
$ $则$ Q - P = (m^4 +\mathrm {m^2} + 1) - (m^4 - 2\ \mathrm {m^2} + 1) = 3\ \mathrm {m^2} 。$
$ $∵$ m \neq 0 $
∴$\mathrm {m^2} > 0 ,$即$ Q - P = 3\ \mathrm {m^2} > 0 $
∴$ Q > P $
