They show that, if you lump manufacturing and services together, productivity has grown on average by 1.2% since 1987.
这些数据表明,如果把制造业和服务业合起来算,1987年以来生产力平均增长1.2%。
That is somewhat faster than the average during the previous decade.
这比前10年的平均增长速度略快。
And since 1991, productivity has increased by about 2% a year, which is more than twice the 1978-1987 average.
自1991年来,生产力每年约增长2%。这比1978年—1987年的平均增长速度高两倍以上。

问题在于,近年发生的生产力快速增长部分是由于商业周期通常到了这时候就会出现的反弹造成的,因而它不是经济复苏已经是潜在趋势的结论性证据。

“‘反科学’这个词可以涵盖很多截然不同的东西”,哈佛大学的哲学家杰拉尔德·霍尔顿在其1993年的著作《科学和反科学》中写道:“它们惟一的共同点就是会激怒或威胁那些自以为比别人更有见识的人。”
