Abstract:
The image of science that we obtain today represents science as the cumulative, rational, experimental and effort of a number of people who have contributed to its development. In 1962, American philosopher Thomas Kuhn in 'The Structure of Scientific Revolutions' shattered our understanding of science. At first Kuhn discards the notion of cumulative research. He challenged the mechanism through which we acquire 'scientific knowledge'. Kuhn claims that science can make progress through ‘paradigm shifts’. Kuhn researched the idea of revolution in science, and examined whether there is any need for revolution at all. In this assignment I will find out Thomas Kuhn’s contribution to the history and philosophy of science. Also, whether he believed in a scientific revolution at all.
