Science from a Sociological standpoint, Oct 10, 2009
By leibniz08

"Although Kuhn's work reflects in many aspects profound influences from sociology, and might not be what you could consider to be a specialized study of science and its history, it is readable by all students in any discipline who are interested in reading a well written recount of the most important periods in scientific development. This, I believe was Kuhn's intention from the very beginning, to attract a general public and not just a group of specialists."

By John, The United States

"This was a happy accident of a read. I only picked it up because of another book I started ("Maps, Graphs, Trees") made so many references to it. Basically, it's a history of science book, but with the aim of revealing patterns behind scientific "revolutions"--what theories and theorists were like during times well before the revolutions, to periods of crises within fields, to the revolutions themselves, and how things settle within the fields afterwards. It's mind-blowing because Kuhn really manages to show a structure behind it all. In fact, I read Steven Pinker's "The Stuff of Thought" just after and I can't tell you how much more of his biases, assumptions and beliefs I could see--which really got me excited because it seems to fall into that period of crises that Kuhn talks about... Anyway, this book should be read by every graduate student."

By erik, Chicago, IL

"Kuhn, a physicist and philosopher and historian of science, wrote The Structure of Scientific Revolutions in 1962, producing other editions until his death in 1996. The book was very influential (see description), serving as a starting point for reappraisals within several disciplines. One, psychology, was specifically covered by John Bannon's Philosophy of Psychology class held during the second semester of 1982/83 at Loyola University Chicago.

I found the book profoundly stimulating, challenging as it did my rather naive understanding of the physical sciences, and went on to read another book which overtly applied Kuhn's analytic template to psychology."

May 5, 2009
By Michael, Durham, NC

"This is the book that introduced the word "paradigm" into common educated speech. Kuhn takes a look at the way in which scientific theories have developed and finds that, contrary to previous views, they do not neatly "build" upon one another in progression toward the truth. Rather they undergo sudden catastrophic shifts when an old model has been found to leave too many questions unanswered. Then the new model is slowly criticized for the gaps in its explanation, with more and more weaknesses being detected until the next catastrophic "paradigm-shift" becomes inevitable.

The book is short and Kuhn defines his concepts well, although the technical language may be off-putting for those with little familiarity with the history of science. Kuhn's conception is itself today paradigmatic, and it will be interesting to see what, if any, concept comes along to replace it when its usefulness runs out."
