摘要
什么是科学指出一个事物属于某一类,但又同属于这类中的其他事物有相区别之处,是给它下定义通常采取的一种方法。因此我想在回答“什么是科学?”这个问题时,可以而且应该这么做。科学属于知识。它属于“知识”这个“类”。它包括在“知识”的外延之中。然而“科学”不等于“知识一般”。
This paper discusses the concepts of science and pseudo-science and the long-term conflict between science and pseudo-science. The author thinks that the emergence of pseucdo-science was a social phenomenon and, therefore, social science research should be onducted on it, which is more important than the correspondent natural science research. Through study of the conflict with pseudo-science, more people can become aware of the rigorous scientific attitude. This is the aim of the study and criticism of pseudo-science.
