物质文明是一把双刃剑：可以造福人类，也可以毁灭人类。人类需要一种更高的智慧去控制这把双刃剑。这种智慧是单纯的西方文化所不能胜任的，需要汲取主要包括中国文化在内的一切人类文明成果 ，就是要将中国文化精神与西方物质文明有机结合起来。 在国家危难，全盘西化的滔滔浪潮冲击之下，20世纪以来中国文化精神逐步失去了自我。如何复兴中华文化，如何将之与西方物质文明有机结合，在科技力量迅猛发展的今天，已经成为一个迫在眉睫的问题——这也是本书的旨意所在。（Material civilization is a double-edged sword that can benefit man and also destroy man. Man needs higher intelligence to control this sword. Pure Western culture cannot provide this wisdom. This needs to absorb all human civilization achievements, mainly including those of Chinese culture, namely, combining Chinese cultural spirit and Western material civilization. In the face of wholesale Westernization impact at the time of national peril, Chinese culture has gradually lost itself since the 20th century. Today, when the power of science and technology advances rapidly, It is urgent for us to revitalize Chinese culture and combine Chinese nation with Western material civilization. This is also the purpose of this book. ）
