后记

It is said that even though you are not an artist you can learn toappreciate art；even though you are not an athlete you can enjoyfootball；and even though you are not a scientist it doesn't meanyou cannot comprehend and appreciate science．The publicationof this book iS meant to invite readers to meet Chinese academi-clans So that they can learn to understand and appreciate science．As early as in 2000 we began to plan the publication of thisbook．Later，a group of reporters，mainly journalists from the Qianjiang Evening News,began to carry out interviews withacademicians．Because of the length of the editing process weupdated some of the contents．But we discovered that severalyears later，when we again interviewed the academicians，theirlives were unchanged．So we have preserved much of the con-tents of the original interviews，because they are a true record ofthe academicians'lives．
