{"product_id":"after-thomas-kuhn-oana-serban-9783110774610","title":"After Thomas Kuhn: The Structure of Aesthetic Revolutions","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book reflects the most recent research devoted to a systematized perspective and a critical (re)construction of previous theoretical attempts of explaining, justifying and continuing Kuhn's ingenious hypothesis in arts. Hofstadter, Clignet and Habermas revealed to be the most engaged scholars in solving this aesthetic \"puzzled-problem\". In this context, the structural similarities between science and arts are attentively evaluated, thus satisfying an older concern attributed to the historical Kuhn-Kubler dispute, extensively commented along the pages of this book. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow can we track the matter of \u003cem\u003erationality\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003etruth\u003c\/em\u003e in art and aesthetics, inspired by scientific perspectives?
