总体来说不错,史料充分,物理解释得很详尽,也只有理科生能做到。哲学问题问得很靠谱,都是从史实说话,不乱玩理论。唯一的抱怨是每次能用短句而不用长句的时候chang一定会用长句,能两三句话讲清的意思能写好几页,再有就是经常假装理所当然地解释好几页一个很复杂的理论或设计,最后突然来一句,这其实自相矛盾/很有问题,害我之前读解释的时候还以为自己没懂,谷歌又查不到。就不能章节开头就点明一下读者你这论据的走向么!

What is temperature, and how can we measure it correctly? These may seem like simple questions, but the most renowned scientists struggled with them throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. In Inventing Temperature, Chang examines how scientists first created thermometers; how they measured temperature beyond the reach of standard thermometers; and how they managed to assess the reliability and accuracy of these instruments without a circular reliance on the instruments themselves. In a discussion that brings together the history of science with the philosophy of science, Chang presents the simple eet challenging epistemic and technical questions about these instruments, and the complex web of abstract philosophical issues surrounding them. Chang's book shows that many items of knowledge that we take for granted now are in fact spectacular achievements, obtained only after a great deal of innovative thinking, painstaking experiments, bold conjectures, and controversy. Lurking behind these achievements are some very important philosophical questions about how and when people accept the authority of science.
