Provides a defence of Kuhn's theory of scientific knowledge, arguing that it is an evolutionary social epistemology; revisits concepts from The Structure of Scientific Revolutions and examines new directions in Kuhn's view, including his emphasis on specialization. Wray also examines Kuhn's view of social constructionism and the sociology of science.
