5年前去汤山游玩的时候,当地的朋友曾带我们到汤山葫芦洞去参观,因为在1993年,这里曾经发现过2个早期人类的头骨化石。这一发现,曾被列为“1993年中国十大科技新闻”之一。汤山葫芦洞属于溶洞,与我见过的其他溶洞似乎没有区别。在江南一带,为什么只有汤山发现了猿人的头骨化石?这些头骨化石与北京猿人的头骨化石有没有区别?这些问题,当时问朋友,他也不清楚。这次见到江苏科技出版社出版的《南京直立人》,这些问题又冒了出来。然而,打开《南京直立人》,却有点发懵。原来,它并不是一部科普著作,而是一部严格的学术专著。担任主编的吴汝康先生和李星学先生,均是中国科学院的院士。吴汝康是世界著名的古人类学家,曾对

When he asked his friends, he did not know. This time I saw “Nanjing Homo erectus” published by Jiangsu Science and Technology Publishing House, and these problems came out again. However, open “Nanjing Homo erectus”, but a bit fat. It turned out that it is not a popular science book, but a strict academic monographs. Mr. Wu Rukang and Mr. Li Xingxue, both chief editors, are academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Wu Rukang is a world famous paleoanthropologist, had
