摘要
斯诺把文学家的敏感与科学家的严谨结合起来，在其小说《院长》里为我们“描绘了20世纪20～60年代英国社会和政治的全貌以及西方社会在经营管理和科学上所出现的错综复杂的问题”，表明了20世纪60年代在西方世界正弥漫着反科学的思潮。他告诫世人如果我们对科学文化的偏见和傲慢仍是我们的价值观念，那么我们总会有一天像院长的候选人人文学者杰戈那样，“痛恨自己走过的路”。
Charles Percy Snow combines the sensitiveness of writers and the rigorousness of scientists. His book The Mas- ters ＂describes the British social and political panorama in the 1920s - 1960s and intricate problems of Western World＇ s management and science＂, which shows that the western world is filled with the anti-science thoughts in the 1960s. He warns us that we will ＂hate the path one passed through＂ like Jagger, President Candidate and a humanist, if the prejudice and the pride to scientific culture are still our values.
