Gattei makes two important claims about the development of the philosophy of science in the twentieth century; that Kuhn is much closer to positivism than many have supposed, failing to solve the crisis of neopostivism, and that Popper, in responding to the deeper crisis of foundationalism that spans the whole of the Western philosophical tradition, ultimately shows what is untenable in Kuhn's view.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefano Gattei\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0754661601\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780754661603\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Stefano Gattei","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153105989887,"sku":"9780754661603","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_30725c83-ceda-4a9f-93ef-6830998fbbd4.jpg?v=1770781325","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thomas-kuhns-linguistic-turn-and-stefano-gattei-9780754661603","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
