摘要
“科学松鼠会”成立于2008年，是一个科学传播公益团体，试图通过自己的努力使科学传播并流行开来。科学松鼠会由科学作家姬十三等人创立。“科学松鼠会”的名字来自一个有趣的比喻。“松鼠会”的创始者们认为科学对于普通大众来说，就像味道鲜美却又不方便吃的坚果，而他们就是要像松鼠一样，把科学坚果外层的硬壳剥掉，把美味的果肉献给大众。 “松鼠会”汇聚了当代最优秀的一批华语青年科学传播者，旨在“剥开科学的坚果，帮助人们领略科学之美妙”。《南方周末》评价说：松鼠会的文字作品兼具科学精神和人文精神，已经成为本土科普作品的重要来源。
Science squirrel club, established in 2008, is a scientific communication public group, trying to make their efforts to make science spread and popular. Science squirrel club was founded by Ji shisan and other science writers. The name of the Science squirrel club came from an interesting analogy. The founders of Squirrel science club think to the public science is just like nuts, delicious but not convenient to eat. To eat them they just have to, like a squirrel, take the outer hard shell of the＂science nuts＂, and the delicious pulp is dedicated to the public.
