夏洛克•福尔摩斯是至今为止在电视和电影里出现最多的角色。

福尔摩斯启发了很多角色的创造：诸如超感神探，豪斯医生，

灵异神探，CSI犯罪现场，法律与秩序，甚至还有蝙蝠侠。

而且受其启发创造的角色全是科学家。

嗨侦探们，我是特雷西，你现在正在收看侦探新闻。

尽管福尔摩斯是虚构的，

他还是让很多人痴迷于逻辑、推理和科学，

这通常可不是那么容易办到的。

直到今天，小说发行一百多年后，

夏洛克这个角色依然有着科学的魅力。

他使用科学方法，用逻辑代替直觉，

他冷静、偏执，像个典型的孤僻科学家，

甚至有人说他有轻微自闭症。

这个维多利亚时代的大侦探如此受欢迎

一部分是因为故事扣人心弦，文笔如行云流水，

而另一部分原因则是他的表现契合时代的变化，也符合真实的人性。

在过去的数百年里，科学是权贵们的专利。

著名的科学家查尔斯•巴贝奇发明了差分机，

那是现代计算器的前身，

是人类工程史上的一大奇迹。

但是巴贝奇有能力去发明这个，也得他家里有钱才行。

柯南道尔爵士写出的福尔摩斯小说，

融合了逻辑、推理、想象，以及角色的性格瑕疵

这赋予福尔摩斯少见的人性化特点，让人容易接近。

科学是人类好奇心和组织能力的结晶。

科学方法几千年前就诞生了。

古埃及的科学/哲学家们，例如亚里士多德，

就用科学方法来解释世界。

而今侦探们用到化学、物理、心理学、

数学、法医学等诸多学科

来侦破案件，这件事情

福尔摩斯一百年前就在干了。

顺便说一句，福尔摩斯在化学上的造诣

使他获得了皇家化学学会的

荣誉会员，这荣誉

通常只授予诺贝尔奖得主，我指的是，真人。

柯南道尔爵士还讲到

福尔摩斯会通过演奏音乐，冥想，甚至吸食可卡因

来激发他的想象力和智力。

这些东西我们侦探新闻去年都提到过了。

我们可没说赞成这些做法哦，不过管他呢。

科学有自己的一套规则。

新的电视剧和那些经典的故事一样

用智力和记忆

来创造、重建犯罪现场，以及发现线索。

想象力和科学的完美结合！

哪一个福尔摩斯是你的最爱？

豪斯医生？还是卷福？

或者是经典的扮演者比如彼得•奥图？
