高錕教授於 2009 年得諾貝爾物理學獎,一生獲獎無數,都是國際級大獎,是世界知名華人科學家。他的光纖研發,更革命性地把互聯網應用帶領到翻天覆地的新世代,從而贏得「光纖之父」的美譽。提起高錕教授,即時會想起他在光纖、寬頻傳送等科技成就。本書是作者七十自述、《潮平岸闊──高錕自述》的簡編縮寫版,不管是《潮平岸闊》還是縮簡後的《高錕自傳》「普及版」,都讓讀者一覽他科研之外的豐富人生。除一閱他周遊列國、闖蕩世界科技文明的履歷及努力,更可一讀他與廝守四十多年的夫人黃美芸如何相識相遇,乃至共渡生活的不同階段,今天讀來,更感鶼鰈之情動人。高錕教授科技事業與家庭兼重,書內溫馨豐富的個人家庭生活,見證了一位科技學者對人文、人倫價值之肯定。本書之簡編縮寫,旨在令一本好書可以接觸更廣大的讀者群。縮簡原則以保留原書神髓為主,高錕的成長過程、求學心得、與夫人黃美芸的生活記趣及從中反映的人生智慧,一概保留。縮簡版基本上保留原版本的章節結構,原中文版的文字風格也被保存;現時的「普及版」只減字簡編,不是改寫。

A simplified translated version of Dr Charles Kao's Memoir 'A Time And A Tide: A Memoir'. On one hand, the achievements of Dr Kao are undoubtedly remarkable. On the other hand, his outlook on life and his understanding of the world are equally inspiring. A great man with with genuine humility and zest for knowledge and life. A true role-model for young people.
