科学家解说道德经
《道德经》是老子于大约3000年前写成的经典名著，其哲学思想是道家哲学和道教信仰的根基。然而，对于《道德经》的诠释往往因人而异，艰深复杂，其哲学具有反直观的特性，使得一般大众难以理解而误把它当成一种神秘主义哲学或者玄学。
本书是中文写成，在此作者将用通俗易懂的语言，从现代科学的角度对《道德经》进行诠释。市面上注释《道德经》的书一般都是文史哲专业的人所写，本书作者的不同之处在于他是一个理工专业的科学家，对于现代物理和生物具有较多的知识。因此，作者能够看出《道德经》哲学和现代科学思想的联系，由此能让读者深刻理解老子的智慧而剥离其神秘主义的外衣。另外，作者也重新组织了《道德经》各章的顺序，以使得全书的讨论更加通顺好理解。
总之，本书对《道德经》的讨论相当新颖而具有启发性，读者通过本书就能够更加了解这一不朽经典，并学习其中的智慧。
Tao Te Ching is one of the most famous Chinese masterpieces written by Lao Tzu about 3000 years ago. Its philosophy formed the foundation of Taoism, one of the two major religions in ancient China (the other one being Buddhism). The interpretation of this book however, is usually complex and varies from person to person. Its philosophy is somewhat counter-intuitive and the general public often sense it as a form of mysticism.
This is a book written in Chinese, which presents the author's interpretation of Tao Te Ching from a modern scientific perspective in plain words. Unlike most books on Tao Te Ching which are usually written by people specialized in philosophy or cultural studies, this author is a scientist who has the knowledge of modern physics and biology. Such unique background allows him to make insightful connections between Tao Te Ching and modern science, which allows the readers to gain a deep understanding of Lao Tzu's original ideas which are results of great wisdom but aren't really mystical by nature. Furthermore, the author has re-arranged the order of chapters of Tao Te Ching, making the discussions easier to follow.
Overall, this book presents the readers with inspiring discussions on Tao Te Ching that will make them appreciate the timeless classic and learn from its wisdom.
