This particular approach may work out, may be the game changer. Or not.

The 1962 book “The Theory of Scientific Revolutions” by Thomas S. Kunz takes on this “relativistic” idea. With a PhD in Physics from Harvard it is no surprise he quickly became a darling for Social Sciences academia (and even business) but caught heat from “normal science”. It may be that this idea is not an “either / or” condition. It may be that it wasn’t completely necessary to move Kunz to the Philosophy Department.
