Preferred term

Thomas Kuhn  

Definition

  • Thomas Kuhn popularized the term paradigm in science and, in doing so, changed the way many scientists and others view the process of scientific inquiry. His theories and descriptions had a profound influence on science education, sociology, and the way in which the history of science was applied to the philosophy of science.
