À propos de cet audio
A good book may have the power to change the way we see the world, but a great book actually becomes part of our daily consciousness, pervading our thinking to the point that we take it for granted, and we forget how provocative and challenging its ideas once were - and still are. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is that kind of book. When it was first published in 1962, it was a landmark event in the history and philosophy of science. Fifty years later, it still has many lessons to teach.
With The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, Kuhn challenged long-standing linear notions of scientific progress, arguing that transformative ideas don't arise from the day-to-day, gradual process of experimentation and data accumulation but that the revolutions in science, those breakthrough moments that disrupt accepted thinking and offer unanticipated ideas, occur outside of "normal science", as he called it. Though Kuhn was writing when physics ruled the sciences, his ideas on how scientific revolutions bring order to the anomalies that amass over time in research experiments are still instructive in our biotech age.
Note: This new edition of Kuhn's essential work in the history of science includes an insightful introduction by Ian Hacking, which clarifies terms popularized by Kuhn, including paradigm and incommensurability, and applies Kuhn's ideas to the science of today.

Histoire
Being and Time was published in 1927 during the Weimar period in Germany, a time of political, social and economic turmoil. Heidegger himself did not escape the pressures and his nationalism, and undeniable anti-Semitism in the following decades cast a shadow over the man, but not the work. Being and Time is not coloured by expressions of his later views (unlike other writings) and remains an outstanding document.

Almost a decade in the making, this much-anticipated grand history of postwar Europe from one of the world’s most esteemed historians and intellectuals is a singular achievement. Postwar is the first modern history that covers all of Europe, both east and west, drawing on research in six languages to sweep readers through 34 nations and 60 years of political and cultural change—all in one integrated, enthralling narrative.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Histoire
Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans - predictable, error-prone individuals. Misbehaving is his arresting, frequently hilarious account of the struggle to bring an academic discipline back down to earth - and change the way we think about economics, ourselves, and our world.

Histoire
Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their constituents. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today’s developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.

Histoire
Based on years of reporting on Samsung for The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and Time, from his base in South Korea, and his countless sources inside and outside the company, Geoffrey Cain offers a penetrating look behind the curtains of the biggest company nobody in America knows. Seen for decades in tech circles as a fast follower rather than an innovation leader, Samsung today has grown to become a market leader in the United States and around the globe.

Very good
A must read for anyone who is, or plans to, make a career in the sciences. It does a good job of balancing a theoretical framework against case studies. Especially interesting for anyone who has considered methodology or epistemology for their respective field. Also one of those rare books that inspires you to add many new things to your wish list and read more about several different topics.

Started slow, but finished strong
The fact that this book was written over 50 years ago makes its content even more impressive. I have been looking for a language to express what I had seen in many groups (scientific, cultural, political, religious) who have difficulty communicating with those who disagree, and frequently end up arguing over definitions and calling each other insane or uninformed when what is obvious to one group seems like nonsense to another. This book expresses so many of the ideas that I had half-articulated for myself, that I'm going to frequently direct my friends to it as an alternate (and well-respected) way of expressing things to them when they look at me sideways while trying to tell them something that Kuhn expresses better than I have. Also, his discussion of perception seems to show an excellent working understanding of what is now called the predictive coding theory of cognition and many of its implications, although this theory wasn't nearly as developed at the time of writing as it is now. Many books are read once and you get out of them all there is to be gotten, but I have a feeling if I read this one again in 10 years it will be a fruitful re-read.

New perspective on science
Even as an avid science reader, I found this book difficult to read. It drags on at first, it is bit dry for a layman like myself. I would suggest skipping the preface essay (which is an hour long I think).
If you stick through it, and finish the book you will most certainly gain a new perspective on paradigms, on scientific revolutions and how science functions in general.
