二十多年来,我国在科学技术哲学方面取得了令世人瞩目的成果。本书作者早年潜心于哲学和自然辩证法的理论研究,较早跨入了科学技术哲学的研究领域。他兴趣广泛,涉猎诸如近现代数学、物理学、经济学以及生态学等学科,努力追踪国际科学技术哲学在非线性科学这一重要研究领域的发展前沿。本专著是在其所完成的研究课题和发表的学术论文的基础上,对科技哲学相关领域的大量专著和论文进行分析、探讨、对比和互证后,经过缜密思考而完成的。其论述力求与非线性科学和非线性思维的最新发展保持一致。本书从哲学的层面、跨学科研究的角度,系统地阐述了非线性的由来和特征,论证了世界的本质是非线性的;非线性是事物发展的终极原因;非线性为人类提供了一种崭新的思维方式——非线性思维。非线性思维已成为当代思维科学关注的焦点,它是人类创造性思维的源泉。(In the past more than 20 years, our country has made remarkable achievements in the field of philosophy of science and technology. The author of the book was devoted to theoretical research on philosophy and the dialectics of nature in his early years and early entered the research field of philosophy of science and technology. He has broad interests, reads cursorily in disciplines, such as modern mathematics, physics, economics and ecology, and tries to track the development frontier of international philosophy of science and technology in the important research field of nonlinear science. The monograph is completed through careful thinking after analyzing, discussing, contrasting and comparing a large number of monographs and papers in the field of philosophy of science and technology on the basis of the research projects completed by him and academic papers published by him. The discussion in the book strives to keep in line with the latest development of nonlinear science and nonlinear thinking. The book systematically discusses the origin and characteristics of nonlinearity, demonstrates that the essence of the world is nonlinear; nonlinearity is the ultimate cause of the development of things; nonlinearity provides a new way of thinking, nonlinear thinking, for human beings from the aspect of philosophy and the perspective of interdisciplinary research. Nonlinear thinking has become the focus of attention of contemporary science of thinking. It is the source creative thinking of human beings.)
