This new edition of Thomas Kuhn's Revolution marks the 50th
anniversary of the publication of Kuhn's most influential work.
Drawing on the rich archival sources at MIT, and engaging fully
with current scholarship, James Marcum provides the historical
background to the development of The Structure of Scientific
Revolutions. Exploring the shift Kuhn makes from a historical to an
evolutionary philosophy of science and examining Kuhn's legacy in
depth, Marcum answers key questions: What exactly was Kuhn's
historiographic revolution and how did it come about? Why did it
have the impact it did? What will its future impact be for both
academia and society? Marcum's answers build a new portrait of
Kuhn: his personality, his pedagogical style and the intellectual
and social context in which he practiced his trade. Thomas Kuhn's
Revolution shows how Kuhn transcends the boundaries of the
philosophy of science, influencing sociologists, economists,
theologians and even policy makers and politicians. This is a
comprehensive historical and conceptual introduction to the man who
changed our understanding of science.
