英语翻译
In contrast,our image of the astronomical universe,of even of earth’s geological history,can easily be subject to revolutionary changes as new data comes in and new theories are worked out.If we define the “security” our image of various parts of the total system as the probability of their suffering significant changes,then we would reverse the order of hardness and see the social sciences as the most secure,the physical sciences as the least secure,and again the biological sciences as somewhere in between.Our image of the astronomical universe is the least secure of all simply because we observe such a fantastically small sample of it and its record-keeping is trivial as compared with the rich records of the social systems,or even the limited records of biological systems.Records of the astronomical universe,despite the fact that we see distant things as they were long ago,are limited in the extreme

相反地,我们脑海中宇宙的模样,甚至是地球的地质历史,会随着新数据的得出和新理论的提出而有所改变.假使把我们脑海中对世界各种印象的可靠程度定义为它们可能被新事物和变化取代的可能性,那么我们原本的难度排序将完全颠倒,社会科学里的概念是最可靠的,相反自然科学里的概念是相对最不可靠的,生命科学中的理论则位居其中.很显然我们对宇宙即天文学的各种理解是这其中最不可靠的,原因很简单:我们只观察了其中相当少的样例,而在这方面我们所得到的数据等科学证据相比于广博的社会科学依据,甚至是有限的生命科学依据,简直是沧海一粟.尽管我们能看到宇宙很久之前的模样(由于光速有限),我们所记录下的天文学中的宇宙仅仅是被限制在蛋壳里.
