论中医实验对传统思辨方式的扬弃

中医思辨表现为注重和谐,注重事物间的关系,并利用事物表面联系找出解决问题的方法;而实验医学则不然,它是要尽量割裂研究对象与其它事物之间的联系,让实验在不受干扰的情况下进行。所以中医建设实验科学的第一步是要认识到哲学思辨与科学思维大不相同,在实验过程中应该慎用推理,并且对传统思辨的方法保持警惕。另外,思辨方法能够从正反两方面提出问题,在实验工作前仍然有积极意义。

Development and Abandonment of Traditional Ways of Thinking Reflected in Experiment in Traditional Chinese Medicine

TCM ways of thinking are manifested by emphasis on harmony, relationships between things and seeking solutions from the apparent relationships, whereas experimental medicine tries to disintegrate the connections between the subjects. It follows that in establishing experimental science of traditional Chinese medicine it is important to realize the difference between philosophical discrimination and scientific ways of thinking so as to use reasoning carefully in experiments and be wary of the traditional ways of thinking. In addition, the traditional ways of thinking is still of positive significance since it poses questions from both positively and negatively.
