摘要
希腊思想史往往被近代科学忽视或者仅承认科学产生的时代背景,却否认古希腊思想尤其是原子论思想对近代科学产生的作用。西方近代的科学传统与原子论思想在本质上是一致的,它不仅体现在近代物理、化学等自然科学发展历程上,更体现在近代科学研究方法重视因果决定论和逻辑推演等方面。
Modem science tends to neglect history of Greek thoughts, or just recognizes the background of science and denies the functions of the latter to the appearance of the former. We think that there is sim- ilarity between the tradition of western modem science and history atomism in terms of the understanding of natural composition.
