First, the book presents authoritative knowledge, derived from authoritative works, and is objective in nature, with little personal bias or prejudice. If there is anything that leans slightly toward "prejudice," it is my yearning for peace and tolerance. I hope everyone can tolerate or even agree with this "prejudice."
Second, in my book, any knowledge, whether historical, philosophical, or related to literature, art, science, or geography, will be presented in a clear, accessible, and even humorous manner, allowing readers to easily absorb and digest it. Regarding this point, I invite you—esteemed readers—to open any chapter or section of the book. Those familiar with this series will discover that it is yet another unique and engaging book on the history of Western science. The author's lucid and engaging writing style outlines the overall framework of Western natural sciences, such as astronomy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, geology, and biology. It provides clear descriptions of the lives and achievements of scientific giants like Archimedes, Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, Darwin, and Einstein. When we marvel at the grand knowledge system depicted by the author and find it easy to grasp, the noble spirit and broad humanistic are etched forever in our memories.
