Features: Since the reform and opening-up, dialectics of nature has been both a pioneer in ideological liberation and a starting point for the revival of contemporary Chinese philosophy. This book, in the form of reviews, proposes twenty-five topics to directly address the inclusive "big bag" approach adopted by dialectics of nature in its development in contemporary China. It closely observes the numerous issues in the rapidly changing world of science and technology, reflecting the changes in the research framework and the expansion of research content in dialectics of nature under the impact of the two global trends of reform and opening-up and scientific and technological revolution. The book emphasizes that the establishment of the theoretical system of dialectics of nature is a process, and the mature concepts, principles, and knowledge introduced in current textbooks were gradually refined through the hard exploration of many scholars, including failures and mistakes. Discarding this process is highly detrimental to the education of dialectics of nature and to improving students' theoretical literacy. The most valuable aspect of this book lies in its focus on the debate and competition among various viewpoints, revealing the growth process of theories, providing readers with a broader space for reflection, and presenting a rich and diverse background for researchers and enthusiasts of dialectics of nature.
