Thomas S. Kuhn's The Structure...
Illustration
Thomas S. Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions deals with how our
current understandings are challenged and changed by scientific discoveries. A genuinely
new discovery in science demands a change in the "paradigm" of our understanding.
Once a discovery is made life is still the same, although we now have both new scientific
tools and a new and better conception/paradigm to think and work with. When we've
truly learned something new, our understanding and our using of natural processes
demand different (and especially larger) concepts.
