Copernican Revolution

"An illuminating story of the intellectual transformation that laid the foundation for modern science and philosophy, and thus can be said to have created the modern world."

Scientific American

"There is no other book that is so patient, comprehensive and sensitive in retrieving the experience and perspective found in the sources of old scientific theories, allowing us to become aware of past intellectual obstacles and to relive things through the process of true scientific discovery."

American Historical Review

"In this study of the Copernican Revolution, the author brings into common focus the careful approach of the historian, the technical understanding of the scientist, and the mastery and experience of a gifted teacher. No careful reader of this masterfully crafted book will find these elements nicely balanced in a complete exposition of one of the major turning points in the evolution of scientific thought." For those interested in teaching the history of science, Dr. Kuhn's discussion of the problems in the Copernican Revolution will prove indispensable; it is a magnificent analysis of the "anatomy of the revolution." "They will regard this book, which develops a paradigm of synthesis and interpretation, as equally valuable."
