摘要: 科学怀疑是科学创新的先导,科学怀疑精神很大程度上决定着科学家的创新能力和创新水平。爱因斯坦的科学实践表明,科学怀疑有三种境界:敢于怀疑经典与权威,善于怀疑自己,允许别人怀疑自己。三种境界的递进提升表明科学家科学素养与人文素养的同时增进,也表明科学家创新能力的不断积聚。科学怀疑不是否定一切,而是要在怀疑批判与继承、怀疑自己与自信、允许他人怀疑自己与坚持真理之间保持必要的张力。

Abstract: Scientific doubt is the forerunner of scientific innovation.The spirit of scientific doubt decides the scientist’s creative ability and creative level to a great extent. Einstein’s practice of science indicated that scientific doubt had three kinds of realm: bravely doubting others, being good at doubting oneself, allowing other people to doubt ourself. The exaltation of three kinds of realm shows that scientist’s scientific character and humanism character are improved simultaneously, and that the scientist’s creative ability is accumulated continuously. Scientific doubt is neither denying everything nor groundless doubt, but keeping necessary tension betwween doubt and insistence, critique and inherit, affirmation and negation.

Key words: Einstein, spirit of scientific doubt, realm
