论中医现代化的系统科学迷思

On systems science myth of modernization of traditional Chinese medicine

系统科学的迷思认为,中医学蕴含丰富的系统思想和系统方法,因此系统科学是中医现代化的关键。中医学既不是现代自然科学也不是系统科学,而且系统科学是以自然科学为基础的,因而根据中医现代化的预设目标,靠系统科学是不能实现中医现代化的。但是,这并不意味着不能用系统科学来研究中医。

The myth of systems science holds that traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)contains rich systematic thoughts and methods,so systems science is the key to the modernization of TCM.However,the author considers that TCM is neither a modern natural science nor a systems science,and systems science is based on natural science,so according to the preset goal of modernization of TCM,the modernization of TCM cannot be realized via systems science.However,this does not mean that systems science cannot be used to study TCM.
