The classical genres of philosophy of science in20th century, whether the logical positivism, Falsificationism, or Historicism all defend science from analytic philosophy. They try to reveal the nature of science around the question of nationality of science and the development mode of science. However, due to their inherent theoretical plight, resulting in the further development of the philosophy of science has long been difficult. Despite the upper three traditions, there is another important philosophy of science tradition, that is phenomenological tradition. The feature of this tradition is holding the sharply critical attitude to modern science, focusing on analyzing and criticizing the basic and the nature of science, trying to rebuild rationality of science by rebuilding the basic of metaphysics. As the foundation of phenomenology theory, Husserl pushed the advancement of the theory. He always focused on an important history phenomenon in the development of human civilization in modem times:The Phenomenon of Science. But when human beings suffered the deeper and deeper survival crisis after1990s, they realized the importance of Husserl’s philosophy of science theory.Husserl admitted the progress of science, but he didn’t think the question about the rationality of science had been proved. We think mathematics and classical physics which are classical disciplines have owned the enough rationalities. But in Husserl’s opinion, they cannot provide the final valid provements for the rationality of science. He thought the idea of rational science must provided by philosophy. To establish a discipline as the strict science:Transcendence philosophy of phenomenology, as the foundation of science, is his final target in his lifetime. The thesis is focusing on the struggle of rebuilding the foundation of science in’ The Crisis of European Science and Transcendental Phenomenology". To rebuild the foundation of science is to reveal the original of history and go back to the truth, finally return to pure subjectivity. From making out the "mystery of subjectivity" through building a Transcendence philosophy of phenomenology on pure subjectivity, to resolve the question of rationality of science completely. The thesis mainly according to Husserl’s important work in his later period:"The Crisis of European Science and Transcendental Phenomenology", Looking back upon and comparing the development of Husserl’s theory, analysing the theory:Back to life-word, rebuild the foundation of "life-world science" systemly and deeply.
