We associate the concept of paradigm shift with Thomas Kuhn, a philosopher of science. He introduced the term in his 1962 book, "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions," where he described how scientific knowledge progresses through revolutionary changes in paradigms.
The term "paradigm shift" was popularized by the physicist and philosopher Thomas Kuhn in his book "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions." Kuhn used the term to describe a fundamental change in the underlying assumptions and practices of a particular scientific discipline. Since then, the concept has been applied to various fields beyond science, including technology, business, and even societal changes. Therefore, when discussing paradigm shifts, we generally associate them with individuals or groups who catalyze significant transformations in their respective fields. These catalysts can include scientists, inventors, entrepreneurs, social activists, philosophers, or any individual or collective entity that challenges prevailing paradigms and introduces new and influential ideas, theories, or innovations.
