Perspectives on Kuhn cover

This book presents essays and commentaries that continue on Thomas Kuhn’s work from where he left off at the time of his death. Contrary to other books, this volume picks up the gauntlet to develop, from a contemporary perspective, some points that can be improved in the light of recent findings and conceptualizations in metatheory. Thus, this work pays a visit to the classical Kuhnian landscapes, but rather proposing interpretations, it takes them as the starting point to go further. One hundred years after Kuhn's birth, the editors and authors rekindle the passion and interest that have always surrounded the work of the great Boston philosopher and historian.

“This book is a delightful contribution to Kuhn scholarship. It is structured very well for its expressed purpose to discuss interesting, and even fresh, themes of  Kuhn’s philosophy. All in all, this is an exceptionally well-accomplished collection.” (Jouni‑Matti Kuukkanen, Metascience, Vol. 33 (1), 2024)
