Kuhn versus Lakatos

Postby azules1977 » Tue Dec 04, 2007 3:06 pm

In case you're interested...

One of Lakatos's major works was [i]Criticism and the Growth of Knowledge[/i]. Like Kuhn, he is most cited in the social sciences for his work pertaining to the philosophy of science. In fact, he and some other scientists published a number of papers following a colloquium where they presented responses to Kuhn's book. Kuhn subsequently responded with "Notes on Lakatos" (PSA: Proceedings of the Biennial Meeting of the Philosophy of Science Association, Vol. 1970 , pp. 137-146). You can find it on JSTOR.

thank you. for all of those forum readers out there that have no idea what this discussion thread is about: i did botox on a nice young lady today with whom i had an interesting discussion about political science. I mentioned that the book by Thomas Kuhn on the theory of scientific revolutions had a profound impact on me and my thinking.

I truly believe that fat grafting is a paradigm shift of historic proportions where most people don't see the crisis yet which is how dreadful traditional facial plastic surgery looks in most cases. Thanks for the entry and update.
Best,
SML
