摘要
美国化学在20世纪20年代步入其发展的黄金时期,并在此后一直引领世界化学潮流。罗杰·亚当斯见证并亲历了美国化学乃至整个科学事业登上世界科学顶峰的历史进程,他在有机化学研究及研究生教育方面硕果累累,他和他的学生极大地促进了美国学院科学与工业研究的有机结合与共同繁荣,除此之外,他作为一位科学政治家所做的工作对于美国及德、日在二战后的科技政策都产生了深远的影响。从他的学术生涯,我们不但可以看到美国化学和化学工业携手并进的一张缩影,也可以看到这样一种独特的学术风格:这种化学风格立足于有机化学研究的学术前沿,但它始终牵动着美国化学工业的创新进程,恰与霍尔顿所言"杰斐逊式的研究纲领"相一致。
Chemical science in American stepped into its golden ages and kept being the leader around the world since 1920s. Roger Adams witnessed and experienced this period of history, he enjoyed enumerable achievements in organic chemistry study and graduate education; besides, together with the students, he helped such a lot in improving the collaboration and co-prosperity between academic science and industrial research; in addition, being an statesman who represented scie contribution exerted a profound influence over the policy of science and tec nce, hnol his ogy in American as well as in the post-war Germany and Japan. By reviewing Roger' s academic career, we can not only see a picture in miniature, in which American chemistry and chemical engineering striding forward hand in hand, but also come across such a unique academic style: following the world academic frontier of organic chemistry in one hand, while in another hand instructing the innovation process of American chemical industry. This style shows a very coincidence with the "Jeffersonian Science" , a phrase coined by Gerald Holton.
