历史变迁中的殖民地科学家——有关原满铁中央试验所著作评述

文章评述了战后出现的一些重要的有关原中试所历史的著述。它们大部分是回忆录，另外有调查报告和报告文学各一部。这些著述的题材比较狭窄，主要有两个方面的内容。一是战后中试所的和平移交以及原中试所研究人员参加新中国建设的情况，二是战前中试所的研发业绩。在殖民地科学评价方面，这些著述几乎没有涉及科学家的道德责任问题。尽管如此，这批著述对殖民地科学史研究仍具有重要的价值。它们不仅提供了战前中试所重大科研项目的一些线索，而且是研究这些科技人员战争结束后在中国生活与工作情况的重要资料。

Colonialist Scientists in the Changes of History--A Comment About the Books Related to Old Central Testing Institute

This paper discusses some important books appearing in postwar Japan about the study of scientists at the old Central Testing Institute (CTI)in China. Most of these books are recollections, a few of them consist of research writings. Rather limited in subject matter, they mainly deal with two problems. One problem treats the postwar peaceful transfer of CTI, and its participation in the reconstruction of new China; the other problem is about the outstanding research achievement of the prewar CTI. In the evaluation of colonialist science, there are also some wrong ideas in the books. Despite their limitation, these books are still quite valuable because they not only provide leads for looking into the major research and development projects of CTI but are also precious material for inquiring into postwar colonialist science.
