“病态科学”一文发表在1989年美国物理学会的刊物《今日物理》第10期上.本刊特将此文翻译摘登,以飨国内的读者.该文自发表后,已引起不少反响,不少人认为朗缪提出了科学研究中一个重要的社会现象,而且还联系了当前科学研究中的实际,但也有人担心这会影响科学上不同学派之间的正常争论.我们认为,必须将科学研究过程中不可避免的错误和病态科学区分开来.不能将一切错误都归结为病态科学.但另一方面,从大量科学史中的例子,包括我国科学发展中出现的事例来看,病态科学提出的确是一类真实的并且产生影响的社会现象.正视它,研究它,并从中吸取必要的教训,正是为了繁荣我国的科学事业.而引起国内读者对这一问题的注意,正是编者发表此文的目的. The article “Morbid Science” was published in the “Physics of Today”, issue 10 of the American Physical Society in 1989. This article has been translated and translated by the journal to readers in China, which has aroused a great deal of reaction since its publication, Many people think that Langmue put forward an important social phenomenon in scientific research, but also linked the reality of current scientific research, but some people worry that this will affect the normal controversy between different schools of science. We believe that we must The inevitable mistakes in scientific research are separated from the pathological science, which can not be attributed to pathological science, but on the other hand, from a large number of examples in the history of science, including the cases that appear in the scientific development of our country, What science presents is indeed a kind of social phenomenon that has an impact and realism, and when we look at it, study it and learn the necessary lessons precisely for the sake of prospering our country’s scientific undertaking, the domestic readers’ attention to this issue is exactly The purpose of this article is published by editors
