Abstract
Thomas Kuhn is the prominent personality of the twentieth
century. He secured the position as a historian and a philosopher of science.
A good historian, famous and real teacher, genuine physicist and scientist
and scholar of philosophy of science and great writer, he presented many
new thoughts which were either unknown or in the seeds of thought e.g. the
novel ideas of ‘The Paradigm’, ‘Paradigm Shift’, ‘Normal science’,
‘Revolutionary Science’, ‘Crises’ and ‘Incommensurability’. These ideas
influenced all the branches of Science and Social Sciences directly or
indirectly in the previous century. So his ideas and philosophy of science is
a part of the study of modern philosophy. Here I have tried to present a
simple, precise and clear understanding of the terminology used in
philosophy of science with especial reference to Thomas Kuhn
