I believe that the latter do not exist at all - on the one hand there is too much variation - on the other hand: if only major deviations lead to the rejection of a theory, there is no criterion. >Criteria/Kuhn, >Experience/Kuhn. --- I 158 Falsification is always after the event - but then it might as well be called verification of a new paradigm. >Paradigm/Kuhn.}, note = { Kuhn I Th.
