在您翻開這本書的此刻，您不僅是開啟了一部關於礦物的百科全書，更是踏入了一場精心策劃的紙上展覽。這本書源自於國立自然科學博物館（科博館）籌備數十年、醞釀已久的「大地瑰寶」礦物常設展。然而，展廳中璀璨的晶體與精煉的圖文，僅是冰山一角；那些深藏在展品背後的故事：關於蒐藏的篳路藍縷、關於策展的理念轉折、關於礦物本身的深奧科學，以及它們與人類文明的深刻連結，是本書希望為您完整呈獻的核心。
這本書該如何閱讀？我們建議您將其視為一趟具有層次感的深度導覽，全書的架構，從策展理念的「解構」到科學知識的「解讀」，旨在引導您從宏觀到微觀，從歷史到當下，完整地認識礦物學的迷人世界。
本書的第一部分：「解構大地瑰寶」，是進入礦物殿堂的序曲。它回答了兩個最根本的問題：這座展廳「為何」與「如何」誕生？
當您理解了展覽的「身世」後，本書的第二部分：「解讀大地瑰寶」，將正式帶您潛入礦物學的汪洋。1. 〈礦物演化：地球礦物多樣性的奧秘〉2. 〈礦物無所不在：一趟深入結晶原鄉之旅〉3. 〈晶體對稱之美：探索礦物世界的內在秩序與萬千形態〉4. 〈晶體色澤之美：解析礦物世界的絢麗色彩〉5. 〈臺灣寶藏：一座島嶼的礦產奇緣〉6. 〈礦物世界：大自然的縮影〉7. 〈大地瑰寶：礦物與人類生活的交響曲〉這7篇文章，是深入展廳核心知識的鎖鑰。
閱讀本書，您可以依循上述篇章順序，從策展的「幕後」走向科學的「臺前」，再從宏觀的宇宙演化，一路聚焦到微觀的晶體結構，最終回歸於與我們生活交織的文明史。您也可以將本書做為參觀「大地瑰寶」常設展的最佳伴侶，帶著書中的知識走入展廳，您所看見的，將不再只是靜默的礦物，而是一部部濃縮了地球億萬年歷史、秩序井然的立體史詩。
At the moment you open this book, you are not merely opening an encyclopedia about minerals, but stepping into a meticulously curated exhibition on paper. This book originates from the "Earth's Treasures" permanent mineral exhibition at the National Museum of Natural Science (NMNS), which has been in preparation for decades. However, the dazzling crystals and refined text in the exhibition hall are just the tip of the iceberg. The stories hidden behind the exhibits—the hardships of building the collection, the shifts in curatorial concepts, the profound science of the minerals themselves, and their deep connection with human civilization—are the core essence this book hopes to present to you in full.
How should this book be read? We suggest you view it as a layered, in-depth guided tour. The structure of the book—from the "deconstruction" of curatorial concepts to the "interpretation" of scientific knowledge—aims to guide you from the macroscopic to the microscopic, and from history to the present, providing a complete understanding of the fascinating world of mineralogy.
The first part of the book, "Deconstructing Earth's Treasures," serves as the overture to entering the hall of minerals. It answers two fundamental questions: "Why" and "How" was this exhibition hall born?
Once you understand the "life story" of the exhibition, the second part of the book, "Interpreting Earth's Treasures," will officially take you into the vast ocean of mineralogy. 1. "Mineral Evolution: The Mystery of Earth's Mineral Diversity." 2. "Minerals are Everywhere: A Journey into the Homeland of Crystals" 3. "The Beauty of Crystal Symmetry: Exploring the Inner Order and Myriad Forms of the Mineral World" 4. "The Beauty of Crystal Color: Analyzing the Brilliant Colors of the Mineral World." 5. "Taiwan's Treasures: The Mineral Miracles of an Island" 6. "The Mineral World: A Microcosm of Nature" 7. "Earth's Treasures: A Symphony of Minerals and Human Life" . These seven articles are the keys to unlocking the core knowledge of the exhibition hall.
Reading this book, you can follow the order of the chapters mentioned above, moving from the "backstage" of curation to the "front stage" of science, then focusing from the macroscopic evolution of the universe down to the microscopic crystal structures, and finally returning to the history of civilization interwoven with our lives. You can also use this book as the best companion for visiting the "Earth's Treasures" permanent exhibition. Walking into the exhibition hall with the knowledge from this book, what you see will no longer be just silent minerals, but three-dimensional epics, orderly and condensed with billions of years of Earth's history. |

This book is the fifth in the "Scientific Photography" series published by the National Museum of Natural Science, and it primarily showcases the winning works from the 8th edition of the Scientific Photography Contest, which featured 66 groups of award-winning entries. The works in scientific photography translate the field of natural history as captured through the lens of everyday citizens. Through photography, participants used different scales and perspectives to capture stunning images, not only exploring the mysteries of science but also evoking reflection and resonance. It is hoped that the public will use photography as a tool to open their eyes to the wonders of science.
Photography is a powerful tool for observing the natural world visually. In 2013, the National Museum of Natural Science launched the "Astonishing New Horizons: Scientific Photography" initiative, which is based on the rich natural history knowledge assets of the Chinese-speaking world. This initiative provides a platform for citizens to express their observations and record images of nature, stimulating cross-disciplinary appreciation and generating momentum for scientific thinking.
Over the course of the eight editions of the Scientific Photography contest, a total of 4,686 eligible submissions were received, with 456 award-winning works. The contest has also led to the organization of six major exhibitions, 33 touring exhibitions, 38 science education events, and the creation of 24 related websites. The event has reached over 1.5 million participants. The touring exhibitions have traveled across Taiwan, including northern, central, and southern regions, and extended to cities in China such as Beijing, Guangzhou, and Anji. The "Scientific Photography" initiative has accumulated a wealth of achievements in science popularization, attracting the attention of scientific photography enthusiasts both in Taiwan and in the global Chinese-speaking world. |

無界世象，彼是方生; 方生方見，方知方逝。
影無非彼，鏡非有相; 惟視有情，吾相鏡界。
All things in the word are interdependent, complementary and without boundaries. With birth comes the desire for understanding. Birth also signals the start of the journey toward death. Images are not the subjects themselves but as they appear to others. What is seen though the lens may not actually exist. Seeing through the eyes of sentient beings requires a corresponding vision. If free from biases and attachments,we can understand that all things are intertwined.

古代文人對鳥類的描寫，往往蘊含人生哲學與關愛萬物之心。中國鳥類多達1,491種，有的棲息於高山峻嶺之巔與深邃峽谷之中；有的生活在遼闊草原，或活動於浩瀚湖泊與海洋之上；亦有部分鳥類活躍於都會與農村，分布範圍相當廣泛。然而，真正貼近人們日常生活、便於長期觀察的鳥類，實不及一百種。
明代李時珍的巨著《本草綱目》於「禽部」中所收錄的鳥類，涵蓋水禽、原禽、林禽與山禽等類型，合計僅記載七十六種。本書即依據古代文人之觀察與描述，選取常見於詩詞作品中的三十六種鳥類，逐一加以闡述，藉以呈現鳥類形象所承載的文化意涵與人文情懷。
Descriptions of birds by ancient Chinese literati often embody reflections on life philosophy and a deep sense of compassion for living beings. China is home to as many as 1,491 species of birds. Some inhabit the peaks of lofty mountains and deep gorges; others dwell in vast grasslands or soar above expansive lakes and oceans. Still others are active in cities and rural areas, giving birds an exceptionally wide distribution. However, fewer than one hundred species are truly close to human daily life and readily observable over long periods.
In the Compendium of Materia Medica (Bencao Gangmu), the monumental work by Li Shizhen of the Ming dynasty, the section on birds records only seventy-six species, classified into groups such as water birds, plain birds, forest birds, and mountain birds. Based on the observations and descriptions of ancient literati, this book selects thirty-six bird species that frequently appear in classical poetry and prose, examining each in turn to reveal the cultural meanings and humanistic sentiments embodied in their images. |
