Interpreting Kuhn: A Comprehensive Study of Thomas Kuhn's Philosophy and Legacy
In this comprehensive and up-to-date exploration, Interpreting Kuhn delves into the profound philosophy and lasting legacy of Thomas Kuhn. Comprising twelve essays written by an international group of scholars, the book covers a wide range of topics where Kuhn's ideas have had a profound impact. Part I delves into foundational aspects, including Kuhn's metaphysical assumptions, his relationship with Kant and Kantian philosophy, as well as the contextual influences on his writing, encompassing Cold War psychology and art. Part II explores three central concepts in Kuhn's thought: normal science, incommensurability, and scientific revolutions. Part III examines the Copernican Revolution in astronomy, the theory-ladenness of observation, scientific discovery, Kuhn's evolutionary analogies, and his theoretical monism. This volume serves as an invaluable resource for advanced students seeking a comprehensive overview of Kuhn's philosophy, as well as for specialists engaged in the ongoing development of Kuhn scholarship.
