论文部分内容阅读
这是一部激动人心的书稿,作者的远见卓识为我们打开了一扇遥望交通新时代的窗口。本书的译者张耀平先生是我国真空管道运输研究的先行者,本刊2004年第3期曾发表他写的《ETT:处在科技前沿的下一代运输方式》。现在他又将布雷德·斯瓦兹怀特先生的《比飞机还快:美国长期运输问题解决方案》英文版翻译成中文准备交由清华大学出版社出版。我们相信这部书稿能给我国的交通规划工作者和广大读者十分有益的启迪,因此征得译者的同意,将书稿经删节后,在本刊连载,以飨读者。
This is an exciting manuscript. The author’s foresight opened a window to us in a new era of transportation. Mr. Zhang Yaoping, the translator of this book, is the forerunner of vacuum pipeline transportation research in China. The magazine published the 3rd issue of “ETT: The Next Generation Transportation Mode at the Cutting-Edge of Science and Technology”. Now he will translate the English version of “Solutions for Long-Term Transport Problems in the United States” by Mr. Brethwaite Wight into Chinese and prepare them for publication by Tsinghua University Press. We believe that this manuscript can give enlightenment to traffic planners and readers in our country. Therefore, with the consent of the translator, we can copy the manuscript to the readers after we delete the manuscript.
