Research Under A Paradigm Must

Literally As Well As Metaphorically, The Man Accustomed To Inverting Lenses Has Undergone A Revolutionary Transformation Of Vision.

Communication Across The Revolutionary Divide Is Inevitably Partial.

In Science Novelty Emerges Only With Difficulty, Manifested By Resistance, Against A Background Provided By Expectation.

Though The World Does Not Change With A Change Of Paradigm, The Scientist Afterward Works In A Different World... I Am Convinced That We Must Learn To Make Sense Of Statements That At Least Resemble These. What Occurs During A Scientific Revolution Is Not Fully Reducible To A Re-interpretation Of Individual And Stable Data. In The First Place, The Data Are Not Unequivocally Stable.
