I thank Leandro Giri and Pablo Melogno for their comments on this essay review. Of course, opinions in it (and responsibility for them) remain my own. As always, I am indebted to Megan Watkins for correcting my imperfect English.

Notes

1 Unless otherwise stated, all references in text without mentioning the year and the author shall be to Wray’s Kuhn’s Intellectual Path. References to chapters in Interpreting Kuhn shall include mention of their authors.

2 On Kuhn and the concept of dogma, see its brief mention in Reisch’s chapter, 64, n. 24.

3 An earlier, though very similar, version of the description in the second one (Kuhn Citation1987) was already written in 1976, for his Foerster Lecture, ‘Does Knowledge “Grow”?’ (Kuhn Citation1976), so almost at the same time as the Preface.
