ON THE UNDERSTANDING OF SCIENCE IN THOMAS KUHN

Thomas Kuhn, as a philosopher and a science historian, has made a revolutionary touch in the history of science and philosophy in the second middle of 20. century. Compared to the philosophers and science historians before him, the concepts and the terms used by him is mostly new. The perspective that he presented throughout his works stands contrary to other perspectives as well. In this study, the main target is to analyse his revolutionary perspective through defining the concepts he used, and mentioning the relations between these concepts.
