The Structure of Scientific Revolutions i

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is a book about the history of science by the philosopher Thomas S. Kuhn. Its publication was a landmark event in the history, philosophy, and sociology of science. Kuhn challenged the then prevailing view of progress in science in which scientific progress was viewed as development-by-accumulation of accepted facts and theories. Kuhn argued for an episodic model in which periods of conceptual continuity and cumulative progress, referred to as periods of normal science, were interrupted by periods of revolutionary science. The discovery of anomalies accumulating and precipitating revolutions in science leads to new paradigms. New paradigms then ask new questions of old data, move beyond the mere puzzle-solving[1] of the previous paradigm, alter the rules of the game and change the map directing new research. impeccable for everyday use. premium materials and excellent craftsmanship ensure long-lasting durability.
