Mini-episode: Galison doubts Kuhn’s idea of scientific revolutions

Oddly Influenced

• Peter Galison, Image and Logic: A Material Culture of Microphysics, 1997
• Thomas Kuhn, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, 1962
• Steven Law, "Do you see a duck or a rabbit: just what is aspect perception?", 2018. (Also has a picture of the Necker cube, which Kuhn also uses. Come to think of it, it might be he only uses the Necker cube, not the rabbit/duck.)
• Imre Lakatos and Alan Musgrave (eds.), Criticism and the Growth of Knowledge, 1970. (The proceedings of a 1965 conference on Kuhn's ideas. It cannot have been fun for Kuhn.)
