Abstract

The first section describes Kuhn's life and works. The second discusses Kuhn's theory of scientific development. This theory consists of a developmental scheme for the basic natural sciences that comprises the consecutive phases of prenormal, normal, and extraordinary science. The major differences between Kuhn's theory and the antecedent tradition are discussed, most notably Kuhn's insistence that scientific communities are the principal actors of scientific development. In the last section, Kuhn's influence on the social and behavioral sciences is discussed and assessed with special attention to his deep influence on the sociology of scientific knowledge.
