3 quotes from The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

  • "What we consider to be scientific knowledge is a series of historical transformations of a scientific tradition..."
  • "Normal science does not aim at novelties of fact or theory and, when successful, finds none."
  • "A paradigm shift is a complete transformation in perception, a shift that changes the very rules of the game."

Author : Thomas S. Kuhn

Thomas S. Kuhn was an American physicist and historian of science, and was considered the most influential philosopher of science after Karl Popper. After receiving his doctorate in physics in 1949, Kuhn worked at Harvard University, University of California, Berkeley, Princeton University, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Apart from this book, Kuhn also authored other books such as ‘The Copernican Revolution,’ ‘The Essential Tension,’ and ‘Black-Body Theory and the Quantum Discontinuity.’
