In this innovative and groundbreaking work, the structure and
evolution of scientific theories is examined in meticulous detail
and rigorously analysed as never before. For the first time,
scientific revolutions are presented as a natural consequence of
the evolution of scientific theories and described with
mathematical precision. Many new techniques are introduced and with
the more precise understanding of the nature of the scientific
enterprise obtained thereby, old philosophical problems are cast
into a new light and shown to be susceptible to the same rigorous
approach by which they may be completely solved. Numerous real
examples from the sciences are given and discussed in detail,
culminating in some startling results concerning the future
development of science and that Holy Grail of physics, the
possibility of a final, all-embracing Theory of Everything. Written
in an eloquent and engaging style interspersed with occasional
flashes of delicious humour, this book is destined to become a
classic in the Philosophy of Science. It will doubtless be
appreciated equally by philosophers and scientists alike as well as
a wider, less specialised audience. Truly an important document and
a major contribution to the literature; this is a work for the
twenty-first century.
