Kuhn's Legacy by Bojana Mladenovic
Bojana Mladenovic offers a novel analysis of Thomas Kuhn's central philosophical project. Kuhn's Legacy demonstrates the vitality of Kuhn's philosophical project and its importance for the study of the philosophy and history of science today.
This may well amount to the most successful reconstruction of Kuhn's philosophy of science yet undertakenMladenovic's interpretive account is a significant intellectual service to scholarship in the history, sociology, and philosophy of science. -- Rupert Read, University of East Anglia Kuhn's Legacy integrates Kuhn's mature reflections and developments with his classic Structure in a clear and persuasive narrative. Mladenovic poses probing interpretive questions about the texts while also examining constraints concerning how best to answer such questions. The results support a pragmatic, communitarian conception of inquiry that she ascribes to Kuhn and, reflexively, applies to investigations of Kuhn, including her own. It is brilliantly done. -- Arthur Fine, University of Washington
Bojana Mladenovic is a professor of philosophy at Williams College. She is the editor of Kuhn's last writings, The Shearman Memorial Lectures, and his unfinished book, The Plurality of Worlds: An Evolutionary Theory of Scientific Development.
