Most readers will be familiar with Karl Popper's principle of falsification - the idea that scientific theories ought to be testable and that theories must stand the test of (potential) falsification. But this review argues that Popper ought to be seen in the same light as Kuhn in questioning the foundation of th3e sciences altogether. I agree. "Both agree that there is no objective criterion for truth, but Popper asserts that truth nonetheless takes a regulative role in scientific practice, whereas for Kuhn truth is of no use at all for understanding the problem-solving behavior of scientists."
