«The Structure of Scientific Revolutions» is the essay by Thomas S. Kuhn published by University of Chicago Press in hardcover (210 pages, in English).
Thomas S. Kuhn argues that science does not advance by linear accumulation of knowledge, but through paradigms that guide normal research. When a paradigm accumulates anomalies it cannot resolve, a crisis erupts and a revolution replaces it with another, reordering the scientific community's worldview.
Originally published in 1962 within the International Encyclopedia of Unified Science (Foundations of the Unity of Science, vol. 2, no. 2); this edition is the second, expanded, of 1970.
For students and professionals of philosophy, history of science, and related sciences, and for readers interested in scientific change.
