Synopsis:

Now available with a new Index, Kuhn's classic book offers "a landmark intelleectual history which has attracted attention far beyond its own immediate field (Nicholas Wade, Science). "Perhaps the best explanation of (the) process of discovery".--William Erwin Thompson, New York Times Book Review.


Review:

"To its author's and everyone else's surprise, 'The Structure of Scientific Revolutions' proved to be the most influential English-language philosophy book of the last half-century. It sold the most copies, made the greatest difference to our ways of thinking, and was the subject of the most intense and complex debate. Kuhn's book marked the beginning of the end of logical empiricism."

Richard Rorty, New Republic, 07/31/1995

Review:

"...I really believe in Thomas Kuhn's 'The Structure of the Scientific Revolution'. When you are at a paradigmatic moment, one of the jobs of leadership at my level is to get into a vision of the next cycle."

Newt Gingrich, Wired, August 1995

Kuhn's classic book is now available with a new index."A landmark in intellectual history which has attracted attention far beyond its own immediate field. . . . It is written with a combination of depth and clarity that make it an almost unbroken series of aphorisms. . . . Kuhn does not permit truth to be a criterion of scientific theories, he would presumably not claim his own theory to be true. But if causing a revolution is the hallmark of a superior paradigm, [this book] has been a resounding success". --Nicholas Wade, "Science" "Perhaps the best explanation of [the] process of discovery". --William Erwin Thompson, "New York Times Book Review" "Occasionally there emerges a book which has an influence far beyond its originally intended audience. . . . Thomas Kuhn's "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" . . . has clearly emerged as just such a work". --Ron Johnston, "Times Higher Education Supplement" "Among the most influential academic books in this century". -- "Choice" --One of "The Hundred Most Influential Books Since the Second World War", "Times Literary Supplement" Thomas S. Kuhn was the Laurence Rockefeller Professor Emeritus of linguistics and philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His books include "The Essential Tension; Black-Body Theory and the Quantum Discontinuity, 1894-1912; " and "The Copernican Revolution". Bookseller Inventory # AAH9780226458083
