自然科学发展的分叉——锯齿规律

The Branch-transition Law of Natural Science

自然科学发展分叉———跃迁规律是描述科学范式之间相互联系的规律。分叉是指前后相继的科学范式具有继承关系,这种关系有两种情况:一是相容性联系;二是相交性的积累联系。跃迁是指前后相继的科学范式之间不仅没有任何继承关系,而且它们对同一自然现象的解释完全不同,二者不可通越,它们按照各自的思路构建科学范式。自然科学以这两种基本联系方式发展。

The branch - transition law of natural science development describes the relations between the normal forms of science. The branch means the the successive normal forms have the relations of inheritance. This relationship has two conditions. One is the relation of compatibility, and the other the relation of intersection. However, in the ease of transition, the successive normal forms of science neither have no relations of inheritance, nor do they share any explanation to the same phenomenon. They cannot intersect, each having its own ways to build the normal forms. In fact natural science develops in these two basic patterns of relationship.
