Nadia Shireen"One book that I really think children should read is The Book That No One Wanted to Read." David BaddielHave you ever thought about how it feels to be a book?

"這是宋朝古人能做的事嗎？ ——大談石油、隕石、五星逆行、地磁偏角、龍捲風、煉鋼、化石、建築工法、營養與消化……。東方的天才達文西，寫給未來世界的科技筆記一部橫跨科學與人文的知識百科，從石油到名流軼事，從五星逆行到夢境解析，從活字印刷到邊防策略，從磁針指南到詩詞書畫。沈括以觀察與思索為燈，穿透一千年前所知的限制，探照出人類追求理性最高貴的模樣。◎沈括是誰？《夢溪筆談》是什麼樣的書？ 沈括是北宋時的重要科學家、政治家，一千多年前，他就已經大談石油（兼命名）、發現UFO（！）、研究現代人都未必聽得懂的數學（高階等差級數求和問題……）、發現「地磁偏角」、研究「共振現象」。 現代戲劇看多的人，會以為他是穿越回一千年前的現代人！其實，沈括是生於一千年前的政治家、科學家。他不但參與王安石變法，也在農耕、疏濬、天文、工程學上有諸多實務經驗與貢獻。《夢溪筆談》是他晚年總結自己一生所學、研究、心得的集大成，被《中國科學技術史》作者李約瑟（Noel Joseph Terence Montgomery Needham）盛讚是「中國整部古代科學史上的座標。」◎不只是一部科普鉅著──更是一千年前的頂尖科學家，思考這個世界的角度與方法 不只是紀錄某地出現石油，更是進一步確認當地人如何使用這個陌生的新發現，以及這個「石油」造成什麼樣的影響。讀到古書中有人飲酒二斗七升，他除了質疑人不可能喝下這麼大量的液體（一斗約等於2000毫升），也實際以古法釀酒、看看不一樣的原理，是不是在成果上也有所不同。 即使是著名的古代碩儒、或者偉大的思想家，諸如墨子、孔安國（孔子後代）或郭璞，他都能夠毫不遲疑地提出質疑；看著堆積的酒罈子，他思考的則不是要不要喝酒、該不該禁酒，而是如何計算這一堆酒罈子的體積。他在誰都還不知道「這樣的學問能做什麼」的時候，想出計算弧長的方式，直接影響日後天文學與曆法發展。 他沒有受過一天科學教育，也沒有受過20世紀後的現代化教育。但他思考這個世界的方式，卻超前當代一千年，或者也超越身處廿一世紀的我們。他如何思考？又如何觀察？◎不只是一千年前的偉大，更是挑戰權威、挑戰未知的勇氣！ 過去的人讀沈括、讀《夢溪筆談》，大多將重點放在沈括在距今一千多年前，就已經在科學上創造相當可觀的成就。但細讀《夢溪筆談》，則可以透過沈括的視角，觀察他如何突破當代的限制，讓思想的廣度與深度都延伸到極限；更可以觀察到他
