The real measure of Kuhn's importance, however, lies not in the infectiousness of one of his concepts but in the fact that he singlehandedly changed the way we think about mankind's most organized attempt to understand the world.

Before Kuhn, in other words, we had what amounted to something verging on the ___23___ of scientific history, in which past researchers, theorists and experimenters had engaged in a long march, if not really towards “truth," although at least towards greater and greater understanding of the natural world.
