I 94 Theory/Proof/Kuhn: Applications are not proof of the validity of a theory. >Proof, >Validity. I 111 New Theory/Special case/Kuhn: arguing that the old theory is a special case of the new, any old theory could be immunized against criticism. - A new theory does not have to include the old. - Can Newton be deduced from Einstein then? Substituting the parameters of Einstein in other equations, they are still Einstein's space, time and mass! - Mass/Newton: remains. - Mass/Einstein: is convertible into energy. Newton's laws are not a special case of Einstein's because the fundamental structural elements change as well. I 116 In order to be considered a special case, the old theory must be transformed. >Theory change, >Paradigms/Kuhn.}, note = { Kuhn I Th.
