作者簡介 他是一位傑出的華裔工程科學家。他熱愛工程科學研究,而且是經常關心工程教育對社會的影響。他時常接受訪談、發表演講、坦率真誠表達自己對工程、科學、教育、文化、民主、經濟、海峽兩岸獨統等緒問題的看法,他以傑出的自然科學家的眼光,冷靜、客觀、深刻地剖析人際關係與社會問題,無疑是他在科研和教學之外對社會的另一种貢獻。 他不但在工程科學成就上馳名中外,對於中國傳統、文化、東西政治文化之比較、都有精確、獨特的見解、發人省思。本書收集了他在各地有關他對此書的演講、記者對陳教授對此書之訪談與評論、與近年來收到對此書的書評、剪報、照片、電子郵件。在此書中的收集、包括中英文兼具的原作影印、以保留原文風貌與特色。 陳惠發教授,布朗大學博士、美國國家工程院院士、台灣中央研究院院士,曾任教普渡大學講座教授、夏威夷大學工學院院長,現為夏威夷大學研究教授。
