Kuhn, Thomas (2012). The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (50th Anniversary ed.). local page: University of Chicago Press. ISBN 978-0-226-45811-3. 


After more than half of a century, the book: The Structure of Scientific Revolutions[1] by Thomas Kuhn is ever more relevant to the current civilization. If we relate the notion of science, to rigorous use of curated data or evidence, then, the book could be named to be The Structure of Data Revolutions. Focusing on data would further accentuate the insights in this book and its relevance in the 21st century. The book also has many translated versions[2].

I. A Role for History

The summarizing sentence of this chapter, and the inspiration of this book: 

"How could history of science fail to be a source of phenomena to which theories about knowledge may legitimately be asked to apply?"

II. The Route to Normal Science

How do scientific theories mature into normal science?

III. The Nature of Normal Science

In the end of Chapter 3, Kuhn stated the three classes of problems in making normal sciences:

  1. determination of significant fact,
  2. matching of facts with theory, and
  3. articulation of theory

IV. Normal Science as Puzzle Solving

V. The Priority of Paradigms

VI. Anomaly and the Emergence of Scientific Discoveries

VII. Crisis and the Emergence of Scientific Theories

VIII. The Response to Crisis

IX. The Nature and Necessity of Scientific Revolutions

X. Revolutions as Changes of World Views

XI. The Invisibility of Revolutions

XII. The Resolution of Revolutions

XIII. Progress through Revolutions
