A good book may have the power to change the way we see the world but a great book actually becomes part of our daily consciousness pervading our thinking to the point that we take it for granted & we forget how provocative & challenging its ideas once were-and still are. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" is that kind of book. When it was first published in 1962 it was a landmark event in the history & philosophy of science. & fifty years later it still has many lessons to teach. With " The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" Kuhn challenged long-standing linear notions of scientific progress arguing that transformative ideas don't arise from the day-to-day gradual process of experimentation & data accumulation but that revolutions in science those breakthrough moments that disrupt accepted thinking & offer unanticipated ideas occur outside of "normal science " as he called it. Though Kuhn was writing when physics ruled the sciences his ideas on how scientific revolutions bring order to the anomalies that amass over time in research experiments are still instructive in our biotech age. This new edition of Kuhn's essential work in the history of science

Includes:: an insightful introductory essay by Ian Hacking that clarifies terms popularized by Kuhn including paradigm & incommensurability & applies Kuhn's ideas to the science of today. Usefully keyed to the separate sections of the book Hacking's essay provides important background information as well as a contemporary context. Newly designed with an expanded index this edition will be eagerly welcomed by the next generation of readers seeking to understand the history of our perspectives on science."

According to N. J. Habraken intimate & unceasing interaction between people & the forms they inhabit uniquely defines built environment. The Structure of the Ordinary the culmination of decades of environmental observation & design research is a recognition & analysis of everyday environment as the wellspring of urban design & formal architecture. The authors central argument is that built environment is universally organized by the Orders of Form Place & Understanding. These three fundamental interwoven principles correspond roughly to physical biological & social domains. Historically ordinary" environment was the background against which architects built the "extraordinary." Drawing upon extensive examples from archaeological & contemporary sites worldwide the author illustrates profound recent shifts in the structure of everyday environment. One effect of these transformations Habraken argues has been the loss of implicit common understanding that previously enabled architects to formally enhance & innovate while still maintaining environmental coherence. Consequently architects must now undertake a study of the ordinary as the fertile common ground in which form- & place-making are rooted. In focusing on built environment as an autonomous entity distinct from the societies & natural environments that jointly create it this book lays the foundation for a new dialogue on methodology & pedagogy in support of a more informed approach to professional intervention." ...

The two-&-a-half centuries after 1066 were momentous ones in the history of Britain. In 1066 England was conquered for the last time. The Anglo-Saxon ruling class was destroyed & the English became a subject race dominated by a Norman-French dynasty & aristocracy. This book shows how the English domination of the kingdom was by no means a foregone conclusion. The struggle for mastery in the books title is in reality the struggle for different masteries within Great Britain. The book weaves together the histories of England Scotland & Wales in a new way & argues that all three in their different fashions were competing for domination. ...
