Scientific revolution is a widely known concept. But does revolution really occur in science? Change through revolution means that present thinking does not retain anything from the past, because everything is thrown away due to the revolution. Does this pattern of change really correspond to the history of science? There is another pattern which is called evolution. This writing will show that process of evolution rather than revolution presents the real situation of scientific change. According to this concept, science grows as an organic species grows in certain environment. An organism is different from its every former stage, yet it remains the same organism throughout its life. In the same way, we will find both change and continuity in scientific growth.

革命与进化:科学概念转变的模式

科学革命是一个众所周知的概念。但是革命真的发生在科学中吗?通过革命而改变意味着当前的思想不会保留过去的任何东西,因为一切都因革命而被抛弃了。这种变化方式真的符合科学史吗?还有另一种模式,称为进化。这本书将表明,进化而非革命代表了科学变革的真实情况。根据这个概念,科学随着有机物种在特定环境中的生长而增长。一个有机体与其之前的每个阶​​段都不同,但是在整个生命中仍然是同一个生物。同样,我们将发现科学发展的变化和连续性。
