Description
Summary:Thomas Kuhn (1922-96) transformed the philosophy of science. His seminal 1962 work ""The Structure of Scientific Revolutions"" introduced the term 'paradigm shift' into the vernacular and remains a fundamental text in the study of the history and philosophy of science. This introduction to Kuhn's ideas covers the breadth of his philosophical work, situating ""The Structure of Scientific Revolutions"" within Kuhn's wider thought and drawing attention to the development of his ideas over time. Kuhn's work is assessed within the context of other philosophies of science notably logical empiricism.
