中国古代产生过许多著名的自然科学家,在世界科学史上留下了不可磨灭的功绩。公元6—7世纪关中民间医生兼炼丹家孙思邈就是其中的一员。他那种不信天命,粪土王侯,重视实践,勇于创新的精神,使他在医药学和化学等方面作出了重大建树。通过对孙思邈这些成就的评论,也可看出法家路线促进了中国古代自然科学的发展,而儒家则是它前进的严重障碍。
Many ancient famous natural scientists in China have left indelible achievements in the history of science in the world. One of them, Sun Ssu-kwan, a folk doctor and alchemist of the Guanzhong Period in the 6th to the 6th century, was one of them. His unbelievable destiny, dung and princely prudence, his emphasis on practice and his courageous and innovative spirit have made him a major accomplishment in medicine and chemistry. By commenting on these achievements of Sun Ssu-t’ao, we can also see that the legalist line promoted the development of ancient Chinese natural sciences, while Confucianism was a serious obstacle to its progress.
