Quote by Thomas Kuhn

This influential work presents the concept of paradigm shifts, arguing that scientific progress does not occur through continuous accumulation of knowledge but rather through periodic revolutions in which one scientific worldview is replaced by another. The book explores how normal science operates within established frameworks and what happens when accumulating anomalies lead to fundamental changes in scientific understanding. This anniversary edition marks fifty years since the original publication of this seminal text that has profoundly influenced discussions across philosophy, history, and sociology of science. more
