Traditional Chinese Medicine's not Following Modern Scientific Experimental Method: Causes and Its Inspiration

从科技哲学的角度对传统中医学与实验科学之间的相关性问题进行分析,认为传统中医未效仿近代科学实验方法,不仅与中国近代以来科学和技术整体上的落后直接相关,而且缘于中医科学范式的特质和方法的宏观整体性。弄清这个基本问题,有利于正确地选择中医、中西医结合的发展道路和模式。

This paper analyzes the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine and experimental science from the angle of philosophy of science and technology. The unique paradigm and macrocosmic methods in traditional Chinese medicine, as well as the scientific and technological backwardness in modern China, best explain why traditional Chinese medicine didn＇t follow the modern scientific experimental method. The analysis helps to explore the best approaches to the development of traditional Chinese medicine and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine.
