Description

Two books have been particularly influential in contemporary philosophy of science: Karl R. Popperâs Logic of Scientific Discovery, and Thomas S. Kuhnâs Structure of Scientific Revolutions. Both agree upon the importance of revolutions in science, but differ about the role of criticism in scienceâs revolutionary growth. This volume arose out of a symposium on Kuhnâs work, with Popper in the chair, at an international colloquium held in London in 1965. The book begins with Kuhnâs statement of his position followed by seven essays offering criticism and analysis, and finally by Kuhnâs reply. The book will interest senior undergraduates and graduate students of the philosophy and history of science, as well as professional philosophers, philosophically inclined scientists, and some psychologists and sociologists.

Sweden's friendliest and environmental friendliest bookshop with the lowest priced textbooks.

This is our ambition, and we do what it takes to get there. We are here to help students to save and earn money on their textbooks while we at the same time save the environment. We were started in 2005 by two students and have since strived to constantly make it easier to buy and sell used textbooks for as many as possible.
